Milwaukee Courier: Ascension Wisconsin Prioritizes Maternal Health in Milwaukee With Specialized OBED Services

Ascension Wisconsin is making a big difference in maternal care for Milwaukee families by launching 24/7 Obstetric Emergency Departments (OBEDs) at Ascension St. Joseph and Columbia St. Mary’s.

These OBEDs are designed specifically for pregnancy-related emergencies and are staffed by board-certified OB-GYNs, ensuring expert care at any hour.

This initiative directly tackles the growing maternal health crisis by focusing on high-risk pregnancies and underserved communities, aiming to save lives and improve outcomes for both mothers and babies, especially in urgent situations like preterm labor or high blood pressure.
