Feds honor NTMC for natal care
November 25, 2023
North Texas Medical Center has recently been designated as a “Birthing Friendly” hospital by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).
According to CMS, this designation identifies hospitals that provide perinatal care, are participating in a maternity care quality improvement collaborative, and have implemented recommended patient safety practices.
There are many reasons that NTMC received this designation, according to Chief Nursing Officer Bonnie Hess.
