The DadPad® Neonatal
Your baby… in safe hands
The DadPad Neonatal (DPNN) provides staff on neonatal units with an essential resource to share with new dads. It’s intended to aid better communication with, and support for, dads of babies in neonatal care, and can be used as an integral part of a neonatal unit’s Family Integrated Care (FICare) model of neonatal support.
The DPNN has been written with input from a range of experts in this field, including:
- Prof Minesh Khashu – with his clinical and practical expertise and experience as a Consultant Neonatologist and Professor of Perinatal Health;
- Julian Bose and the team at DadPad – with their collective expertise and experience in working with and producing high-quality, bespoke support materials, custom-written for dads’ specific needs;
- neonatal dads, both current and past; and
- experienced neonatal nurses.
The book has been specifically designed to be used as a ‘quick start‘ guide, covering dads’ most immediate concerns upon admission to the neonatal unit, before then changing into a more in-depth guide, providing detail on key topics of concern and interest to neonatal dads and their families.
