This room may be used for either daytime or overnight rooming-in. A shower and bathroom are across the hall. The nurse, social worker or case manager can reserve this room for you. Parents of babies who require special equipment at home will be fully trained before their baby is discharged from the hospital. The social worker and case manager will help provide educational materials, arrange for special equipment, and obtain any necessary home-health services.
Car seats are available for purchase in many department and toy stores.
TMC also has a car seat loaner program. Ask your baby's nurse if you need to borrow a car seat. Infant CPR classes are offered in the nursery. Ask your baby's nurse or the case managers for information. We recommend that all babies visit their primary care physician one week after discharge.
