Comforting Your Baby In Intensive Care

Your baby has been admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit for life saving medical and nursing care. Will it hurt him? Who will comfort her?


This booklet is written for parents to help them learn how pain works and how they can work in partnership with their baby's care team to keep their baby comfortable during intensive care.  The evidence-based booklet can also be useful to health care professionals as a teaching aid to promote parent engagement and family-centered care.
