Mary & Elizabeth is working on organizing a patient and family advisory counsel. PFACs serve as a valuable resource for health care facilities and providers to modify practices and services to best meet patients needs. It allows the "powers that be" to hear from the actual communities they serve.

Are you interested in serving on the PFAC for MEH? You would be a voice for our future birth services there and wants new and expectant parents want vs. what decision makers think they want.

If this sounds appealing to you, please sign up here.

Thank you for your interest in serving on the Patient and Family Advisory Council (PFAC) at UofL Health. We appreciate your time and desire in helping UofL Health improve patient care. We do not expect you to have experience working in health care; we are interested in your experiences as a consumer...

Apparently it's world compliment day.

A recent survey comment/compliment from a lovely patient:
"This visit was to give birth to our son. Our nurses were Tanya and Kristin and our midwives were Jessica Deis and Katana Ratcliff. Our care was absolutely amazing and one of the best medical experiences I've ever had. Our nurses were outstandingly kind, attentive, helpful and patient with myself and my family throughout the entire process of admission, labor, and recovery care. Thank you so much for such amazing care and an experience we will always remember."

To the individual that wrote this, thank you for trusting us with your care!! We don't take that responsibility lightly.

We have the very best patients that make this job easy and enjoyable.

Who can you compliment today?

We made it to the final day of black history month 2024 (but I hope these posts help to serve as a reminder that every month is black history month) and there's just no way we could recognize and honor all of the black birth workers pouring their heart and souls into improving care and outcomes for everyone.

So todays post will not be on anyone in particular, but a photo essay that is worth reading, viewing and sharing.

To all the black midwives and birth workers out there, thank you so much for your dedication and sacrifice. We love and appreciate you.

African American babies in Minnesota are twice as likely to die in their first years as white babies. A birth center is trying to change that through culturally focused care for women of color

Want your practice to be the top-listed Clinic in Louisville?

Welcome to our page!

The U of L Certified Nurse Midwifery program was established in November, 2014. We are (pictured, L to R) Damara Jenkins, ARNP, CNM; Lysbeth Franco, ARNP, CNM, WHNP and Sadie Chandler, ARNP, CNM. We encourage women to become active participants in their health care and learn more about the full range of options available to them. We take time to get to know our patients and understand their unique histories, values and preferences.

Because we understand the importance of the birth experience, we stand by you in tailoring the birthing experience you want. We know that a woman’s birth memory is lifelong and our goal is that every patient has a positive, informed birth experience. We support women who want to have a natural birth, as well as women who choose to have an epidural. We welcome patients who are seeking VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean) and we have the highest success rate in Louisville. From preconception to taking your baby home for the first time,we provide support throughout the entire process. We attend deliveries at the Center For Women & Infants at University Hospital.

In addition to maternity services, we provide care to women across the life span, from a teen’s first visit to women entering menopause, and beyond. We provide family planning and birth control counseling, and normal gynecological services such as physical and breast exams, pap smears, and preventive health screening. We can prescribe medications, order lab tests and services to complement your care.

If you’re planning to become pregnant, we’d love to get to know you at a preconception visit. If you’re currently pregnant and would like to transfer your care, you can contact us at 502-588-4238 to set up a consult visit to get your questions answered. We look forward to partnering with you in your care.
