No one knows what has led a person down this path of addiction. We have to let them know someone cares and is here to help them.
What if there was a place dedicated to helping infants born into the harsh reality of prenatal drug exposure? Enter Lily's Place, a Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS) facility offering a lifeline to both babies and their parents. In this heartfelt episode of the Cover 2 Resources podcast, host Greg McNeil sits down with Rebecca Crowder, the Executive Director of Lily's Place, to discuss the incredible work being done at this pioneering center.
Rebecca shares how Lily's Place provides not just medical care, but also emotional and therapeutic support for infants experiencing withdrawal symptoms due to prenatal drug exposure. With a mix of observational, therapeutic, and pharmacological care, the facility aims to give these vulnerable infants the best start in life. One of the key highlights of the conversation is the mandatory drug screening for every mother entering the hospital to give birth.
This proactive measure has been instrumental in identifying and supporting families in need. Rebecca delves into how this screening, paired with the specialized care at Lily's Place, creates a comprehensive support system for both infants and their caregivers. Rebecca also opens up about the challenges faced by non-profits like Lily's Place, particularly in terms of funding and sustainability.
Despite these hurdles, the success stories of infants and families who have benefited from their programs serve as a powerful testament to their impact. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding how community support and innovative care can make a real difference in the lives of those affected by prenatal drug use. Tune in to hear more about the vital work being done at Lily's Place and how you can support their mission.
