Compassionate care for new mothers

  • Summary

  • It takes a village to care for a newborn and navigate early motherhood, but mothers with a history of opioid dependency often lack the community support that can help them thrive. Stigma can be a barrier to getting proper care for themselves and their babies, which may be heightened for babies born with neonatal abstinence syndrome. Even the act of asking nurses at the hospital for advice can seem daunting.


    This episode, we talk to people and organizations who are working to reduce stigma and improve outcomes. By providing compassionate care, both mothers and infants can be set up for success.


    Guests:


    • Nikole Young, Director at Heart Rock Justus Family Recovery Center
    • Tara Sundem, Co-Founder and Executive Director of Hushabye Nursery
    • Justin Phillips, CEO and Founder of Overdose Lifeline
