Department Spotlight: Maternal Child Education

Welcoming a new family member into the world can be an exciting time for expectant parents. As many parents can attest, there is no feeling like holding your baby for the first time. That excitement, however, is often matched with nerves, especially for first time parents who have many questions about what they are about to experience. How do I prepare for birth and postpartum? Can I breastfeed? How do I set my child up for success in their first year? What safety techniques do I need to understand? The list of questions goes on... ...and the Maternal Child Education (MCE) department at Renown Health is here to answer them and set parents up for success with their new bundle of joy

Protect Your Child’s Health with Timely Vaccinations

Why are timely vaccinations important? Childhood vaccinations are scheduled and vaccines are administered when young bodies require immediate protection or need to build immunity for diseases and illnesses we may encounter throughout our lives. Delaying recommended vaccinations puts children at higher risk for diseases that can affect them more harshly, like pertussis (whooping cough), which is especially dangerous for babies.

Understanding Nevada’s Safe Haven Laws

The Nevada Safe Haven Law provides a safe, legal option for parents in crisis to surrender their newborns, no questions asked and without fear of prosecution for abandonment or neglect. The goal of the law is to protect infants while offering parents a secure, anonymous alternative during a time of emotional distress.
