Needs Assessment
Underreporting of prenatal visits Physicians not starting to 2nd trimester Late entry into the WIC program Problem recognition by Community Transportation & child care barriers Unintended pregnancy
![Page 7: Better Understanding Our Problem: Pro blem-Orient ed Needs Assessment](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/56816764550346895ddc4389/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Potential Strategies Underreporting of prenatal visits
– Vital registration manual– Clerk training– Health department record transfer– Physician record transfer– Standardized prenatal care record– Physician & hospital education– Monthly reporting system– Hospital standards– Incentive awards
