Health Directive Based on General Assembly Bills

Overview

The County Executive was directed to work with staff to review and propose a possible Countywide maternal health action plan focused on prevention, screening, referrals, and coordinated review of serious maternal and infant health outcomes. Staff should work with the State Health Department, across agencies, and with our health care partners to identify any service gaps, actions to improve maternal mental health connections, and recommend concrete steps Prince William County can take to better support women during pregnancy and postpartum. The County Executive is directed to bring back any appropriate recommendations for the Board’s consideration. Such recommendations should, where applicable, include timelines, fiscal impacts, and other pertinent impacts for Board consideration. The County Attorney’s Office is directed to review the information and recommendations for any legal issues. When the research and work are complete, the County Executive should report back to the Board with his analysis and recommendations during a Board meeting or by memorandum, as he determines appropriate.
