Regional Perinatal System
The STRAC Regional Perinatal Committee (RPC) meets to provide an open, consensus-driven environment across all relevant disciplines in the development of regional guidelines, processes, quality/patient safety initiatives, and educational opportunities to facilitate efficient and appropriate perinatal care.
Hospital and prehospital representatives responsible for or active in the development or delivery of perinatal care should have a representative at the Regional Perinatal Committee meetings. Emergency Department Directors, Emergency Medicine Physicians, Obstetricians, Obstetrics / Maternity Medical Directors, and Obstetrics Nurse Managers in the STRAC region should attend Regional Perinatal Committee meetings as well as Air and Ground EMS Command Operations, Medical Directors, Chiefs / Directors, Clinical Operations, and EMS Performance Improvement.

STRAC Regional Perinatal Committee Listserver
Join the Discussion
The Regional Perinatal Committee listserver is a stakeholder-led environment where clinicians directly involved in perinatal care and their administration may have discussions to improve the perinatal care in our 26,000 square mile region in South West Texas. STRAC routinely utilizes email list servers to conduct committee business, and has a strict non-disclosure policy governing the use of the list server (we do not share member information with outside organizations and email traffic is restricted to committee/member business only).
