Aftercare
Sometimes the postnatal period of pregnancy brings about new challenges. It can be difficult to know if a visit to the doctor's office is necessary, and frustrating when it was not. Some questions are personal and more comfortable when discussed with someone familiar. A midwife is an optimal choice for postnatal questions and concerns and can offer sound advice on home-care practices.

Family & Parenting Resources
A partnership with Russell Child Developmental Center provides help with the adjustments and care of a newborn. Additional services may be available as needed following the assessment of your baby.
The department participates in the National Center on Shaken Baby Syndrome promotion known as the “Period of Purple Crying Program” to prepare parents and other family members with ways to cope with an upset infant.
