Our Impact

Since its inception in 2015, NPQIC has led multiple statewide efforts to implement evidence-based clinical practices and quality improvement initiatives to reduce maternal and infant morbidity and mortality. NPQIC has successfully enrolled all 43 birthing facilities in the State of Nebraska as member hospitals. 

Introducing...

Welcome to our Perinatal Pearls: Education Corner!

Picture this: a rural Nebraska hospital that delivers just a handful of babies a year. When a postpartum hemorrhage happens, there’s zero time to wait for backup—the team in the room has to be ready to roll immediately.

That level of confidence and readiness doesn't happen by chance. It comes from intentional skill-building, real-world drills, top-tier resources, and bringing evidence-based care straight to the bedside.

That’s exactly what we’re doing at NPQIC, and this blog is your backstage pass!

Here's what you can look forward to:

  • Behind the scenes: a front-row look at readiness resources, simulation training, our amazing community partnerships, and the real impact they're making
  • Bite-sized evidence: new guidance and updates, broken down in plain language
  • Bedside hacks: practical, real-world wisdom for those high-stakes moments
  • Tales from the trail: highlights, memorable moments, and lessons learned as we travel across Nebraska hospitals
  • Toolbox treats: podcasts, videos, toolkits, and helpful gems you (or a teammate) will definitely want to bookmark
