Why is it that a child or an adult admitted to intensive care can expect one to one nursing care, but a baby cannot?

Experts say that sick and premature babies in intensive care need one to one nursing care as a minimum.

But only a handful of hospitals say they have the nurses to provide this level of care.

Bliss believes that this is not fair and that all babies deserve the best possible start in life.

Bliss is leading a coalition of groups who agree and are calling upon the Government and healthcare providers for action to address this situation.

These groups are The Royal College of Nursing, The Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, The Neonatal Nurses Association,  The British Association of Perinatal Medicine, The Scottish Neonatal Nurses Group, The Scottish Neonatal Consultants Group and Tinylife, the Premature Baby Charity for Northern Ireland.

But we need your help to deliver the message.

If you agree that it is not fair that babies receive a lower level of nursing care than children and adults, click here to call for action.

Once you have taken part in the campaign, please find us on facebook or twitter to hear about further news about the campaign or Bliss in general...
