  1. FEATURED TEAM: Neonatal Intensive Care, Downey Medical CenterNeonatal unit’s ‘Three Cs’ for outstanding service WHAT THEY DID Comfort, creativity, communication • Encourage parents to hold their babies, skin to skin, on their chests, sometimes for several hours at a time. • Provide a quiet, private room for parents, giving them a chance to rest, shower and make difficult decisions about their child’s care. • Converted a crash cart into a craft cart so parents can make a personalized tag for their baby’s crib. • Offer scrapbooking workshops to give babies’ parents and siblings a creative outlet and informal venue for interacting and supporting one another. • Created a parent handbook that consolidates the many one-page handouts parents received. • Care providers from all related departments regularly round to prevent gaps and delays in care. Read more about the teams work and other successful practices on the Labor Management website, www.LMPartnership.org. RESULTS Percent of patients who agreed with the statement, “I would prefer to return to Downey Medical Center if care is needed.”
