Nurse-Family Partnership's maternal health program introduces vulnerable first-time parents to registered nurses. This program allows nurses to deliver the support first-time moms need to have a healthy pregnancy, become knowledgeable and informed parents, and provide their babies with the best possible start in life. Nurse-Family Partnership has demonstrated statistically that this research-based program significantly improves critical outcomes for at-risk women and their children who receive services in local communities. More information can be found at: www.nursefamilypartnership.org .
Beginning with nurse home visits that occur during pregnancy and continue until the child is age two, Nurse Home Visitors provide coaching and care to first-time expectant mothers. The nurse develops therapeutic relationships and utilizes concepts of reflection and motivational interviewing with women and their families in a home visiting environment modeling client-centered, strengths-based, and solution-focused approaches. The Nurse Home Visitor maintains the highest standards in clinical nursing practice and adherence to the NFP model, as well as to policies, procedures, guidelines, and standards of NFP and of the lead agency, Goodwill of Central and Southern Indiana.

This program allows nurses to deliver the support first-time moms need to have a healthy pregnancy, become knowledgeable and informed parents, and provide their babies with the best possible start in life. Nurse-Family Partnership has demonstrated statistically that this research-based program significantly improves critical outcomes for at-risk women and their children who receive services in local communities. More information can be found at: www.nursefamilypartnership.org .
Beginning with nurse home visits that occur during pregnancy and continue until the child is age two, Nurse Home Visitors provide coaching and care to first-time expectant mothers.
