Each year, more than 500 babies leave the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at Miller Children’s & Women’s Hospital. While going home is a milestone worth celebrating, many families soon face new challenges - developmental delays and medical needs that require ongoing support.
That’s where our High-Risk Infant Follow-Up Programat the Stramski Children’s Developmental Center comes in. This outpatient clinic is designed for babies born prematurely or at risk, providing comprehensive care through a multidisciplinary team of nurse practitioners, therapists, and social workers.
Our goal is to catch developmental delays early and help every child reach their full potential. We partner with families every step of the way, offering:
- Growth and development assessment
- Nutritional evaluation and guidance
- Feeding evaluation
- Family support
- Parent education
- Coordination/referral to community resources
- Safety instruction
- Instructions on medication, equipment, and special procedures
- Literature on age-appropriate play
- Coordination of health services
