Take 5 for the John M. Eisenberg Award: Parkland Health

We’re celebrating the 2022 John M. Eisenberg Patient Safety and Quality Award recipients in this special Take 5 series. These awards recognize major achievements to improve patient safety and healthcare quality. There are three recipients each year: for an individual; an organization impacting quality care at a national level; and an organization impacting quality care at a local level.

In this episode, we are joined by Parkland Health’s Marjorie Quint-Bouzid, Senior Vice President of Nursing, Women and Infant’s Specialty Health, and David B. Nelson, Chief, Division of Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Associate Professor, Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center.

Parkland Health is the recipient of the 2022 Eisenberg Award for innovation in patient safety and quality at the local level for its Extending Maternal Care After Pregnancy program that provides access to care for 12 months after birth for women with the highest social needs — as well as limited access to physical clinic locations.
