Maternal and Infant Health
NICHQ projects have contributed to significant improvements in infant mortality rates. Our initiatives have helped reduce the rate by 12% in participating communities over the past five years.
Childhood Asthma
Through our quality improvement programs, we have helped hospitals and clinics reduce emergency department visits for childhood asthma by 25%. This success is due to better management plans and patient education.
Mental Health in Adolescents
Our research shows that access to mental health services for adolescents is still a major challenge. Only 40% of teenagers with a diagnosable mental health condition receive the treatment they need.
Immunization Rates
We work to ensure children receive timely immunizations. In our collaborative networks, the on-time immunization rate for infants has increased to 95%, surpassing the national average.
