We are eager to hear from you about your recent hospital transfer experience and appreciate your honest feedback. Your responses will be used to help improve the transfer process for others. Survey data gets de-identified, aggregated, and shared during Perinatal Transfer Committee meetings for quality improvement at hospitals participating in Smooth Transitions. In addition, selected quotes from surveys may be included in presentations to promote the program and in publications about Smooth Transitions.
