Delivering Respectful and Anti-Racist Maternal Care: A Multi-Disciplinary Discussion

September 16, 2021

Description: We know that respectful and anti-racist maternal care should be the standard for providers, but what does it look like in practice? In this session, we will explore how to deliver respectful and anti-racist maternal care through the following perspectives: obstetrics, midwifery, health equity research, patient safety, and community. Panelists will discuss experiences with respectful/disrespectful and racist/anti-racist maternal care, why change is important, and how we achieve the respectful and anti-racist maternal care for all.
Theme(s): Respectful and Anti-Racist Maternal Care

Dr. Angela Thomas, Vice President, Healthcare Delivery Research
Dr. Tamika Auguste, Chairwoman of Women’s and Infants’ Services at MedStar Washington Hospital Center
Dr. Loral Patchen, Medical Director of MedStar OBGYN Center
Libertad Montoya, MSN-Ed, BSN, RN, Registered Nurse at Medstar Washington Hospital Center
