The Family Care Center: Transitional Care for the Sick Infant and His Family.
Goldson, Edward
Children Today, v10 n4 p15-20 Jul-Aug 1981
A hospital-based transitional care medical program for infants discharged from a neonatal intensive care unit is described. Family involvement is emphasized, as is interdisciplinary teamwork. Concerns that the program would encourage unnecessary hospitalization and increase vulnerability to infection have been proven unjustified. (Author/DB)
