The Infant Safe Sleep Work Group concluded the 2004 session with a call for educational materials on a safe infant sleep environment. By late 2006, Tomorrow's Child had developed the Infant Safe Sleep Community Toolkit, containing a variety of resources to be used in implementing an Infant Safe Sleep Program. The next step for MDCH was the Infant Safe Sleep Hospital Project. Its goal was to reduce preventable infant deaths by teaching anyone caring for infants - including both health care professionals and parents - about ALL aspects of a safe sleep environment. The specific objectives of the Hospital Project were to: assess current hospital practices regarding infant safe sleep develop and implement a comprehensive hospital policy addressing infant safe sleep educate hospital staff regarding policy and integrate the changes into day-to-day nursing practice evaluate compliance with the policy "MDCH" Pages: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 Next
