The Maternal Opiate Medical Supports Plus project (MOMS Plus) was developed to improve care and outcomes for mothers and their unborn babies through wrap-around services, care coordinators, and tailored counseling.
Picture this: you're an expectant mother in Ohio, grappling with opioid use disorder, and the future seems uncertain. Enter the Maternal Opiate Medical Supports Plus (MOMS Plus) project, a beacon of hope for mothers and their unborn babies. In this episode of Cover 2 Resources, host Greg McNeil chats with Dr. Michael Marcotte and Jennifer Terry from Cincinnati Children's Hospital about this groundbreaking program.
MOMS Plus was launched in 2017 to address the alarming rise in neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS), where babies experience withdrawal symptoms after birth due to opioid exposure. The program offers comprehensive wrap-around services, care coordinators, and personalized counseling to improve outcomes for both mothers and their babies. With over 1,000 mothers already benefiting from MOMS Plus, the program has shown promising results in reducing NAS rates and improving overall pregnancy outcomes. Dr.
Marcotte and Jennifer Terry delve into the nuts and bolts of the Ohio Perinatal Quality Collaborative and how non-pharmacological treatment bundles are making a difference. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the compassionate and innovative strategies being employed to combat the opioid crisis in Ohio. Tune in to hear about the real-world impact of MOMS Plus and be inspired by the stories of resilience and recovery.
