Discover World's First Neuroscience-based mental health training for healthcare professionals working with Neonatal families
 Transforming Neonatal Care through Neuroscience and Lived ExperienceÂ
This global training programme is designed to deepen healthcare teams’ understanding of the psychological and physiological impact of a neonatal stay on parents—both during admission and long after discharge.
