Getting Ready for 2021 Joint Commission Perinatal Standards: Lessons From the Field

Summary Statement The new Joint Commission requirements on perinatal safety present a unique opportunity for the simulation community to actively engage with labor and delivery units nationwide. Considerations for implementation using “real-life” experience with the programmatic development of an in situ team-based simulation training program in obstetric emergencies are discussed. We urge simulationists to explore opportunities to promote culture change on a large scale to move the needle of maternal morbidity and mortality.
