Who Should Attend
"Preemie Perspectives/Preemie for a Day" is a one day seminar focused on the challenges of premature birth from the viewpoint of the infant. Preemie for a Day® is a nationally recognized interactive, multi-sensory learning program presented by Children's Medical Ventures. It contrasts developmentally supportive and traditional care of premature infants.
To maximize the learning opportunities, the participants will be assigned to one of two groups. Group A will do the Preemie for a Day program in the morning while Group B attends presentations on additional issues for premature infants and their caregivers. After lunch, the groups will switch and the presentations will be repeated. Nurses, physicians, respiratory therapists, lactation consultants, social workers, and OT/PT therapists are welcome.
Continuing Education Credits
Children's Medical Ventures will award 4.2 RN contact hours and 3.5 AOTA contact hours for the Preemie for a Day portion of the program. University of Michigan Health System's Educational Services for Nursing is accredited as a provider of continuing nursing education by the American Nurses Credentialing Center's Commission on Accreditation. 3.75 (additional) contacts hours for nursing will be provided.
