Starting this week, maternity wards in Hartford HealthCare facilities are starting the Orange Band Program for patients who have given birth.
Patients being discharged are given orange wristbands that say “I GAVE BIRTH” on them, and being asked to wear them for at least eight weeks to alert other medical providers that they recently had a baby.
