Engaging health care providers such as pediatricians, neonatologists, and obstetricians - and taking into consideration their work environment - is critical to addressing the health needs of the perinatal population before, during, and after a disaster.

Potential partners include:

  • Hospitals (community, pediatric, maternity)
  • Medical homes
    • Private practices
    • Federally qualified health centers (FQHCs)
    • Health Systems
  • Specialists/subspecialists
  • Midwife collectives
  • Lactation consultants
  • Mental health service providers
  • Medical social workers or on-site social workers
  • Urgent care clinics
  • Emergency medical service providers (eg, paramedics, ambulance drivers, EMTs)
  • Non-hospital laboratories
  • Retail pharmacies
