It's a good book for profesionals working at NICU, with a lot of information about the childrens medical conditions, the parents'point of view, but with only few especific information about intervention for an occupational therapist.I recomended for my colegues.

This book was purchased for our early intervention department. It is filled with excellent information and techniques in working with babies born prematurely. Well written and easy to understand the terminology used in the NICU.

I liked this book and the material was relevant and essential for entering into the NICU. The book focused on many issues that are prevalent in the NICU such as stresses to the infants( ex. environmental) or issues that involve family-centered participation in the NICU.

Great book
