We need your insights around addressing the issue of food insecurity among parents/families with infants hospitalized in the NICU.

[FCCTaskforce @FccTaskforce]

We expect parents to room-in prior to discharge, but no food is allowed in the NICU. Our home ventilator trial training is 24/7x10-14 days in a hospital room, resulting in many barriers to food access. How is your unit addressing food insecurity among NICU parents and families?
