Steve Biko Academic Hospital Neonatal unit and the Division of Neonatology (Department of Paediatrics and Child Health) hosted another successful “World Prematurity Awareness Day” function on Friday 16 November. The aim was to bring about awareness to parents and staff regarding the challenges of being born prematurely and to acknowledge all team members (doctors, nurses, occupational therapists, dieticians, physiotherapists, speech therapists, social workers, technicians, cleaners, and parents) for their part in taking care of these tiny babies.
