Learn about the importance of our R thread presented by parent Sibylle and psychotherapist Neels Basu. Don’t miss this superb presentation at our study day 27 April.

Delighted to share a taster of the feedback from the 40+ people at EiSMART study day 27 April - ‘this was an amazing and inspiring day’, ‘so brilliant to have parents co presenting in all sessions’, ‘thank you for the excellent training - this is the best I have ever attended!’

From a consultant neonatologist after hearing EiSMART’s 27 April study day opening session - ‘This is the best lecture I have ever heard on brain injury in the preterm and term brain’. Dr Angela Huertas + parent power = amazingly informative lecture! London Neonatal ODN @londonneonatalodn.bsky.social BAPM

Don’t miss Dr Anna Basu’s neuroplasticity lecture which will be repeated on our 23 sept study day - ‘What an important presentation! From a parent point of view, neuroplasticity is so important as it ties in with our sense of hope, that we live with every day’. London Neonatal ODN @londonneonatalodn.bsky.social

The wonderful ANNP and parent Leah says ‘let’s incorporate SMART into our systematic review/ward rounds and address the baby’s evolving SMART needs in the same way as we address their medical needs resulting in a holistic, collaborative approach with parents at the centre’.

Our R thread was beautifully and powerfully captured by joint presenters Neela Basu psychotherapist and parent Sibylle discussing the importance of Relationships and hearing how early relationships are the scaffold for cognitive, linguistic, emotional and social development.

Professor Nugent - a strong opening for the WAIMH conference

A wonderful day #WAIMH2023 Ei SMART #EarlyIntervention
