Decoding code OB: Interprofessional approach to OB training can improve communication and patient outcomes

Abstract

Maternal outcomes are a growing concern for hospitals across the nation. The post-partum patient experiencing medical complications requires complex interprofessional team involvement. At an urban, tertiary academic medical center, maternal outcomes and team communication were improved by providing innovative interprofessional education to staff nurses, nurse leaders, and physicians.
