The purpose of the Perinatal/Neonatal Outreach Coordinator (PNOC) program in collaboration with MAHEC is to engage birthing facilities and other regional stakeholders in a collaborative, data driven process to ensure that families receive high quality, evidence-based and risk-appropriate maternal and neonatal care. This program hopes to achieve these goals by guiding the region’s birth facilities in the implementation of the CDC LOCATe assessment as well as through rural OB simulations and professional development opportunities.
