COVID-19 Resources
COVID-19 is presenting society and hospitals with unprecedented challenges, risks, and disruptions. The impact on care for newborn infants and families is largely unknown.
As newborn care teams strive to provide the best care for infants and families during the COVID-19 outbreak, we must work together in open dialogue to put the latest data and evidence about this new disease into practice.
The resources on this page are designed to rapidly increase our understanding of the disease. Participation is open to all, regardless of VON membership.
