Overview
The journey to successful oral feedings for many preterm and sick infants and their families in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) can be arduous. This live interactive webinar is designed to capture the dynamic problem-solving process that underpins the infant’s journey to safe and successful feeding both in the NICU and beyond. There can be multiple roadblocks, such as sequelae from medical co-morbidities, well-intentioned actions that create risk, and worrisome clinical presentations that require a thorough differential, critical thinking, and consideration of risk-benefit at every juncture. Collaboration, especially with parents, and the entire care team is essential to truly support infant-guided feeding, and positive protective feeding experiences.
I hope you enjoy this learning opportunity~
