Why Does It Matter in Virginia?
-
Virginia ranks among the top 10 states with the highest maternal mortality rates.
-
Over 50% of pregnancy-related deaths occur between 7 days and 1 year postpartum, making the extended postpartum period a critical time for care and awareness.
-
Many of these deaths are preventable!
What Are The Teal Bracelets?
-
Teal bracelets identify postpartum women across the state of Virginia up to one year postpartum that are still at risk for life-threatening complications of pregnancy.
-
This bracelet alerts all providers to deliver informed-care.

If you see an individual wearing the teal band, it means that they have recently delivered. Assess them IMMEDIATELY.
