METROHEALTH LAUNCHES NURSE-FAMILY PARTNERSHIP

MetroHealth Medical Center has enrolled its first families in Cleveland’s new Nurse-Family Partnership (NFP) program supported by a three-year, $1.2 million grant from the Mt. Sinai Health Care Foundation. “Thirty years of research have provided evidence that NFP nurse home visits, beginning prenatally, reduce infant mortality and have lifelong beneficial effects for both mother and baby,” said Foundation President Mitchell Balk. “Mt. Sinai is proud to bring NFP to Cleveland with the help of MetroHealth and numerous public and private funding partners.”
