At Penn Medicine, we are committed to providing high-quality care for populations who may face unique challenges in accessing and receiving health care. From maternal health programs to culturally and linguistically appropriate services, we aim to eliminate barriers and improve health outcomes for all.
Our initiatives focus on ensuring that every patient receives care tailored to their specific needs, whether they are new or expectant mothers, aging individuals, or those who require language assistance.
Maternal health and specialized maternity programs
Maternal health remains a critical focus, particularly for communities disproportionately affected by complications and disparities in care. Our programs are dedicated to providing high-quality, accessible maternity care to improve outcomes for mothers and their babies.
Making health care work for more people
Beyond maternity care, Penn Medicine is helping more people get the right care by focusing on areas like:
- Culturally and linguistically appropriate services: With many patients speaking limited English, we provide interpretation and translation services to ensure clear, effective communication between patients and providers.
- Healthy aging initiatives: As we expand our focus, we are developing programs to support older adults in maintaining independence, accessing care, and improving overall well-being.
By prioritizing culturally competent care, addressing maternal health disparities, and expanding access to essential services, Penn Medicine is ensuring that every individual receives high-quality, compassionate care tailored to their unique needs.
