This activity aims to train maternal health workers to talk to their expectant parents about fetal monitoring and use best practices to track fetal monitoring. By using evidence-based and non-invasive tools, providers can help prevent stillbirths.
This webinar may be viewed for CEU until 6/30/24.
Following the webinar, participants will be able to:
• Demonstrate how to implement Count the Kicks into their practice to improve birth outcomes.
• Utilize the free kick-counting tools and resources available to them.
• Describe the powerful stories of what happens when expectant parents, particularly at-risk populations, learn to track fetal movement and how they can use that knowledge to help save babies.
