Support Systems: Strategies and Implications for Hospitalized Newborns and Families

Linda L. Flynn

University of Illinois

Jeanette McCollum

University of Illinois

This article describes both ideological and theoretical studies of support systems available to handicapped, low-birth weight, and high-risk newborns and their families within the hospital setting. Attention is focused on the time-frame immediately following the birth of the infant. Medical, social service, and educational/ developmental factors influencing the family-unit are addressed. The article discusses extant strengths and weaknesses in each system from a parent's as well as a professional's perspective, along with models of "best practice" and an overview of implications for viable support.
