A Collaboration of Providers and Registered Nurses on Early Assessment and Identification of Patients with Risk Factors for Postpartum Hemorrhage

The magnet is a visual cue for nursing staff and other health care providers to indicate that a woman is at risk of PPH. The visual cue is useful when entering the room of a woman who is giving birth or when performing postpartum assessment of a woman with whom the provider is not familiar. The provider is now alerted to an increased risk of hemorrhage. Nursing staff appreciate the visual cue when a call bell is activated.
