Summary

The purpose of this research study is to understand if receipt of extra prenatal resources from the ED visit improves i) the patient's ability to engage in prenatal services after the ED visit, and ii) how it impacts the patient's pregnancy knowledge and confidence. If participant's consent to this study, the participants will receive standard of care and additionally be randomized, like flipping a coin, to receive either i) extra prenatal care resources in the form of a 'care box' during this ED visit, or ii) the extra prenatal care resources in the form of a 'care box" two weeks from today. All participants will also receive a follow-up survey asking about the patient's engagement in prenatal services following ED visit, perceptions of pregnancy knowledge and confidence, the usefulness of the resources received, and what additional resources might have been helpful during the early stages of pregnancy. Participation in this study will not require any additional clinic or hospital visits. The total time involved is approximately 20 minutes during the initial ED visit and less than 20 minutes to complete the follow-up survey. Investigators hope to enroll a total of 50 participants in this study.
