• Find step-by-step guidance for conditions you may not encounter frequently
• Remember: patients within the first year postpartum are at an increased risk for medical complications, mental health concerns, and substance use issues.

The Quick Care Card is a safety tool for pregnancy and the first year after birth. It helps you access the right care quickly and supports healthcare teams in recognizing when pregnancy or a recent birth may be an important factor in your health. 

Pregnancy-related risks don’t end at delivery. Physical and emotional changes and complications, including mental health and substance use, can continue for up to a year postpartum and beyond.
