TN-SOARING Summer Speaker Series

The Tennessee Network for Surveillance of At-Risk Infants and NICU Graduates (TN-SOARING) is a network of medical providers and clinics offering developmental follow-up care for infants and toddlers with complex neonatal histories, including those cared for in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) across Tennessee.

TN-SOARING is proud to present a four-session virtual Summer Speaker Series focused on follow-up care for NICU graduates. One presentation will focus on models of NICU follow-up care. The other presentations focus on unique needs of NICU graduates related to feeding and eating behavior, sensory differences, and challenging behavior concerns, including resources and recommendations for addressing such concerns with families.
