Description

Following discharge from the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) many infants who automatically qualify for early intervention services are not receiving these services. By working with South Carolina?s early intervention agency, Babynet, the NICU at the Medical University of South Carolina Children?s Health has begun to develop new procedures for initiating Babynet referrals prior to NICU discharge and improve family-centered discharge process.
