The Perinatal Quality Standard contains nine quality statements that describe priority areas for improvement of perinatal care in British Columbia. Each quality statement is explained in relation to what it means to patients, caregivers and family members, health care professionals and health care organizations. Each quality statement has associated quality indicators, which aim to track progress towards meeting the statement.

We would like to acknowledge that we are living and working with humility and respect on the traditional territories of the First Nations peoples of British Columbia.
We specifically acknowledge and express our gratitude to the keepers of the lands of the ancestral and unceded territory of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and səl̓ilwətaɁɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations, where our main office is located.
We also recognize Métis people and Métis Chartered Communities, as well as the Inuit and urban Indigenous peoples living across the province on various traditional territories.
