AI Summary

This resolution congratulates The University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB) in Galveston on being named a 2025 High Performing Hospital for Maternity Care by U.S. News & World Report, a prestigious national recognition that evaluates hospitals' labor and delivery services. The resolution highlights that since 2021, U.S. News has published annual rankings to help expectant parents make informed healthcare decisions, and UTMB earned this designation by scoring highly in categories such as care for unexpected newborn complications, birthing-friendly practices, and transparency in reporting racial and ethnic disparities in birth outcomes. Out of more than 800 hospitals evaluated nationwide, UTMB was recognized for its commitment to high-quality maternal and infant care, with the Texas House of Representatives formally acknowledging the hospital's excellence by adopting this resolution, extending best wishes to its administration and staff, and preparing an official copy of the resolution as an expression of respect and appreciation for UTMB's significant healthcare contributions.
