Commonsense Childbirth - AWOHNN EAC Training Handout

An Easy Access Clinic™ provides prenatal and postpartum outpatient care services in a community- embedded Perinatal Safe Spot™ using The JJ Way® Model of Maternal Health Care.

Providing culturally-congruent care and clinical services, as well as educational and social support with referrals to trusted resources, creates safe, equitable care resulting in improved outcomes and reduced disparities.

The design ensures that barriers to early access to prenatal care are removed and an immediate maternity medical home is created, with no one ever being turned away for services. We strive for cost effectiveness, utilizing staff and resources, yet saving countless dollars by preventing preterm and low birth weight babies.
