The Preemie Podcast

Financial Support for NICU Families

Hello! This season we are looking into the additional stress factors that a NICU stay can bring. One of those is, of course, the financial burden that impacts so many families who have a hospital stay. We discuss the opportunities that we have in Scotland to support our families and have a look at different initiatives across the world.

Hi everyone!  What a special episode we have for you today.  We were joined by Amy, who was a NICU nurse, a preemie mum and now works for Pampers, helping to design nappies for our incredible NICU babies!   What an incredible woman, and such a pinch me moment for us.  We hope you love it!  Catriona and Taylor x
