MACON, Georgia (41NBC/WMGT) — Beverly Knight Children’s Hospital, Navicent Health is keeping parents and babies connected through a new app during the pandemic.
The hospital’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit rolled out a new mobile app called Vocera Ease. It allows caretakers to send secure texts and photos to an infants’ loved one in real-time.
NNICU can now connect families to their infants, thanks to a grant from Pampers.
Pampers calls it the Bright Beginnings NICU Connectivity Grant, which helps with cameras and tablets allowing loved ones to talk, read and sing to their babies virtually in the age of COVID.
