November 2022: Prematurity Awareness Month- 39 Weeks is the Goal!
|
The November 2022 Awareness Campaign is Prematurity Awareness Month, 39 Weeks is the Goal.
Prematurity Awareness raises consciousness, about the seriousness of premature birth. Preterm babies still carry a huge vulnerability to developing cerebral palsy, delays in development, hearing problems, and sight problems. Additionally, while neonatal death in the United States is low in comparison to most of the world, premature births account for a quarter of all neonatal deaths. For more information please visit our website www.elcpalmbeach.org, or we can email you the information.
