About the event
Anticipating the birth of a child can be one of the happiest times for parents. But when babies have life-threatening medical issues and begin their lives in the NICU, everything can change. For some parents, this may mean navigating a new role: learning how to navigate the NICU and communicate with the medical team; figuring out what matters most to their baby and family; considering intense medical interventions, interpreting medical jargon; seeking clarity in the absence of a clear prognosis; building a trusting relationship with the baby’s medical team.
Join Dr. Monica Lemmon and several experienced NICU parents, for a discussion about strategies to build helpful parent-clinician alliance and parental confidence in decision-making for the newborn in the NICU.
This event will take place on Thursday, February 27th at 8:00 pm EST Â (7:00 pm CT, 6:00 pm MT, 5:00 pm PT).
