We work hand-in-hand with health professionals to ensure care for babies on the neonatal unit is of the highest possible standard.
Bliss has championed parents as partners in their baby’s neonatal care ever since the Bliss Baby Charter was first launched in 2005. Today those core principles are encapsulated in Family Integrated Care (FICare), a model of neonatal care which enables a culture of partnership between parents and neonatal healthcare professionals.
Evidence shows that outcomes for babies and families are improved when parents are partners in their baby’s care. However there remain many barriers to implementing this approach equitably for all families.
Bliss will work with health professionals, neonatal units and policymakers to ensure that all babies can benefit from FICare, and to tackle the barriers facing parents.
