summary | **Summary:**
**Title:** Emergency Obstetric and Newborn Care (EmONC) Framework
- **Vision:** Ensuring survival and well-being of every pregnant woman and newborn experiencing complications by providing timely, appropriate care. - **Background:** Developed in response to high maternal and neonatal mortality rates, particularly in low-resource settings. - **New:** Revised framework with expanded indicators for improved quality measurement.
**Revised EmONC Framework:** - Six signal functions (long-term availability of essential commodities; interim availability; infrastructure; workforce adequacy; referral; travel time) plus nine additional functions related to care quality, respectful care, and workforce wellbeing. - Fourteen core indicators across these functions.
**Implementation Steps:** 1. Identify the current EmONC landscape. 2. Assess gaps against established standards. 3. Prioritize improvements based on identified gaps. 4. Develop a strategic plan for implementation. 5. Integrate EmONC into routine data systems and humanitarian settings. 6. Use tools to assess quality of care.
