Families navigating pregnancy, birth, and the early months of parenting can face significant emotional, practical, and system-related challenges.

Using a hypothetical case study exploring a journey following preterm birth and a NICU stay, this webinar will follow key transition points where clear communication, coordinated care, and family engagement are essential. You will gain practical insight into the role of lived experience workers as part of the care team, and how they can support families to navigate services, process complex information, and stay engaged in care during high stress periods.
