AK Birth Transfer Initiative: Receiving Provider Survey
You are invited to participate in this brief survey because you were identified as the receiving provider during a recent transfer from a planned community (home or birth center) birth. As part of the evaluation of the Alaska Birth Transfer Initiative, all transferring providers, receiving providers, registered nurses, clients, and emergency medical personnel (for emergent transports) who were involved in a transfer/transport in participating regions will be asked to complete an evaluation survey that asks about experiences with the transfer process. The Alaska Birth Transfer Initiative seeks to improve the transfer/transport process, to enhance collaboration among community and hospital-based birth providers and staff, and to improve the patient experience during transfers.
Your response to this survey will remain anonymous. Survey responses will be shared in summary format on a regional level with health care professionals participating in the initiative. Your participation in this survey is entirely voluntary and you may leave the survey at any time. Please do not provide any information in the comments that could potentially identify a client. We look forward to hearing about your recent birth transfer/transport experience and appreciate your honest feedback.
Please email akpqc@alaska.gov if you have any questions or concerns about this survey.
