Parent Education: NICU Knowledge

Parent/caregiver education for parents of a premature or NICU baby.

Parents with, or expecting, a premature or special care baby benefit from by understanding the roles of the various professionals with whom they will come in contact, the terminology used by these professionals and the technology they may encounter in the NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) or Special Care Nurseries.

This app provides short videos and written and verbal explanations and pronunciations of terms. These “lessons” are excerpts from our extensive NICU Knowledge and Parent Education Series available at leading hospitals.

For more information about the full NICU Knowledge educational program and how your hospital can participate, please call Patient Education Programs at 804-327-1113 or email [email protected].
