The impact of birth injuries extends far beyond the delivery room, creating profound challenges for both children and their families. When medical professionals fail to meet the established standard of care during pregnancy, labor, or delivery, the resulting injuries can have devastating consequences. Although some infants may recover with appropriate medical intervention, many face lifelong disabilities that require continuous specialized care, rehabilitation services, and ongoing medical support.

Medical complications during birth can result in various injuries, including:

• Cerebral Palsy from oxygen deprivation
• Erb's Palsy and shoulder dystocia
• Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE)
• Brachial plexus injuries
• Spinal cord damage
• Facial paralysis
• Bone fractures
• Brain damage from lack of oxygen

Families in Desert Hot Springs have access to several medical facilities where births take place:

• Desert Regional Medical Center
• Eisenhower Health
• JFK Memorial Hospital

According to recent studies by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), approximately 7 in 1,000 births in the United States involve birth injuries. The Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP) reports that many of these injuries are preventable with proper medical care and monitoring.
