April 2012 Newsletter Article
The Newborn SIG will be held Sunday morning April 29th from 8-11 am. We look forward to networking with our nursery colleagues from across the nation. On the agenda will be a year's recap of "Hot Topics" on the Listserve. Bring your best ideas, policies and references and come ready to join in the discussion of these hot topics. We plan to discuss Hypoglycemia, Neonatal Abstinence, Breastfeeding/Baby Friendly Supports, Social Work Screening and Supports, and Infant Falls/Sleep Position. Don't see your personal "Hot Topic" on this list? Don't worry, just let us know and we will add it. We will also be glad to take "late breaker" topics on the morning of the meeting.
We look forward to seeing you soon!
