This engaging course is designed to provide participants with tools and strategies to prepare the NICU patient and family for discharge and transition home. Class participants will learn to evaluate, identify, and optimize services and care for NICU graduates as well as to enhance home-based and/or outpatient clinical setting skills. Evidence-based medical, developmental, and outcome data will be discussed to inform treatment, best practices, and management of the medically fragile NICU child. Participants will need to have a doll and two baby blankets available to practice techniques during the webinar.
This course is designed for therapists and developmental specialists working with the infant and family in the NICU, PICU, EI and home, up to their first year after discharge.
