Georgia Health Report: Georgia’s plan to help rural ER doctors handle birthing emergencies

This week on the Georgia Health Report, to help close the gaps in rural maternal healthcare, Georgia is looking to use federal funds to place obstetric carts in rural emergency rooms. WUGA's Havivah Saltz sits down with Briah Lumpkins, a reporter with KFF Health News.

Havivah Saltz has been with WUGA since 2023 as an on-air host and the producer for African Perspectives. She got her start in radio on WOBC FM at Oberlin College (class of ‘23), and she’s also worked as an on-air host on Athens' Power 100.1 and Magic 102.1. She is currently WUGA's Senior Content Producer. Outside of work, you can find Havivah making art, writing fiction, practicing Japanese, petting her very round cat, and watching concerning amounts of TV.
