TRIGGER WARNING- this podcast talks about the death of premature babies.

Working in the community means that clinicians can be faced with any type of incident. This means needing the right equipment to deal with whatever they face.

In the tragic and rare cases where a premature baby has died, it has been in the past difficult to find a safe and dignified solution for baby to be transported with parents. The cuddle pocket is designed to be a compassionate way of carrying a baby from the community to the hospital.

Back in 2021, Damon Wheddon, Clinical Lead, sat down with Jordan Nicholls, Jenni McClagish and Denise Kendall to talk about how the Trust commissioned the pockets and how to use them.
