Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim April 2025, as Cesarean Awareness Month in the State of New York

AI Summary

This resolution urges Governor Kathy Hochul to officially proclaim April 2025 as Cesarean Awareness Month in New York State, highlighting the importance of understanding cesarean section (C-section) risks and benefits. The resolution recognizes that while cesarean surgeries can be lifesaving in certain medical circumstances, they also come with potential complications such as longer recovery times, increased risks of stillbirth, placental abnormalities, and uterine rupture. The document emphasizes that women should have access to comprehensive information about vaginal birth and cesarean sections to make informed healthcare decisions. By memorializing this awareness month, the resolution aims to increase public understanding and promote maternal and child health by encouraging more informed discussions about childbirth methods. The resolution requests that an official, engrossed copy be transmitted to Governor Hochul, symbolizing the legislative body's formal request and commitment to raising awareness about this important healthcare issue.
