@AlisonScerra It is sad to see that our food is not properly regulated by the FDA. I am proud of Michelle Obama for making a change to school lunches for children by adding healthier food options made with healthful ingredients and including more whole grains, fruits and vegetables! #NR4031218
@AlisonScerra I am happy to see the number of schools and daycares that are requiring children to stay up to date on vaccinations. I hope that the stigmas preventing from parents vaccinating their children fade away and that parents realize the importance of vaccinations! #NR4031218
@AlisonScerra During clinical in the ED, it was surprising to see the number of patients that do not have a primary care provider. Very important topic! #NR4031218
This article emphasizes the importance of kangaroo care! It can help stabilize heart and breathing rates, mimics the womb and improves a baby's sleep and enhances growth and weight gain by regulating body temperature. It also benefits the parents by improving bonding! #NR4031218
Incredible story, NICU graduation for baby born at 22 weeks with a 2% chance of survival. The family was told that the hospital would not save a baby under 24 weeks so they had to transfer to a different hospital to save their child. NICU families are incredibly strong #NR4031218
We love these success stories! Thank you to the staff of University of South Alabama Children's and Women's Hospital for their care! https://t.co/ii5E0gmAJk
This article is very interesting! A study was done on 47 preterm babies that showed that showed improved brain development in babies that were exclusively fed breast milk. Mothers should be encouraged to breastfeed, if able, to give their baby the best start in life. #NR4031218
