Registered Nurses serve families through an evidence-informed home visiting model and provide core services including: 1) health assessments of the infant and mother, 2) extensive screening for issues including maternal depression, infant developmental delays, and risk for child abuse\/neglect, 3) education on infant care, safe sleep, formula preparation and breastfeeding, CPR and more, and 4) resources and referrals for needed services. Services are provided as needed for up to two years after birth.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ custom_padding_last_edited=”off|desktop” _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#f7f7f7″ background_enable_image=”off” background_size=”contain” background_position=”top_left” background_horizontal_offset=”10%” background_vertical_offset=”0%” custom_padding=”||||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”0px||20px||false|false” custom_padding_phone=”||0px||false|false” background_last_edited=”off|desktop” background_color_gradient_start_position_phone=”30%” background_color_gradient_end_position_phone=”30.3%” background_image_phone=”https:\/\/nursesfornewborns.org\/missouri\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/08\/gyp-left.svg” background_enable_image_phone=”on” background_image_width_tablet=”0%” background_image_width_phone=”0%” background_image_height_tablet=”90%” background_image_height_phone=”90%” background_position_phone=”top_left” background_horizontal_offset_phone=”10%” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_css_main_element_last_edited=”on|tablet” custom_css_main_element_tablet=”background-size:75%!important;||background-position:bottom left!important;” custom_css_main_element_phone=”background-size:80%!important;||background-position:bottom left!important;”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ make_equal=”on” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|tablet” module_class=”custom_row” _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” width=”90%” width_tablet=”90%” width_phone=”90%” width_last_edited=”off|phone” max_width=”100%” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”0px||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ module_class=”second-on-mobile” _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” background_image=”https:\/\/nursesfornewborns.org\/missouri\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/08\/pyg-left.svg” background_size=”contain” background_position=”center_left” custom_padding=”5%||5%|10%|false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/nursesfornewborns.org\/missouri\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/11\/family4-column.jpg” title_text=”family4 column” _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” max_width_tablet=”85%” max_width_phone=”90%” max_width_last_edited=”on|desktop” border_radii=”on|10px|10px|10px|10px” box_shadow_style=”preset3″ global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ module_class=”vert-align first-on-mobile” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” max_width=”600px” max_width_tablet=”90%” max_width_phone=”90%” max_width_last_edited=”on|phone” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin_tablet=”||30px||false|false” custom_margin_phone=”||30px||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Enriched Assistance<\/h2>\n

Community Health Worker\u2019s (CHW) often are often added to the care plans of families with additional needs. CHWs often provide families with culturally competent outreach, support, and navigation to community resources. <\/p>\n

NFNs Licensed Clinical Social Worker ensure access to mental health services by assisting families with environmental or mental health concerns that may impede the infant\u2019s progress.<\/p>\n

Families enrolled are also assisted with donated material items such as diapers, formula, and infant and baby clothing whenever possible. Depending on the extent of the individual family\u2019s needs, additional supplies such as highchairs, car seats, baby baths, both infant and adult hygiene supplies, infant or family nutritional needs, and safe sleep items such as pack n plays needed for safe care.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ make_equal=”on” module_class=”custom_row” _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” width=”90%” width_tablet=”80%” width_phone=”80%” width_last_edited=”off|desktop” max_width=”100%” custom_margin=”|auto||auto|false|false” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ module_class=”vert-align first-on-mobile” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” max_width=”600px” max_width_tablet=”90%” max_width_phone=”90%” max_width_last_edited=”on|phone” module_alignment=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
