NEWBORN CLUB

Newborn Club is a service provided for all new families in the Napa-Solano Service Area. The service includes examination of the newborn, assessment of the mother, and support of breastfeeding. Families may come back to Newborn Club for the first 30 days after birth for assistance with breastfeeding or if there are concerns about the newborn’s care, growth or health. All of our Registered Nurses and one of our Medical Assistants are certified lactation educators who can provide the support needed for women to successfully breastfeed. The Registered Nurses have extensive experience in examining newborns and have immediate access to a MD if any health concerns are discovered. We are pleased to provide this service to our new families, and we hope that it will enhance the experience of this very special event.

If you think you have a MEDICAL OR PSYCHIATRIC EMERGENCY, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY or go to the nearest hospital. DO NOT attempt to access emergency care through this web site. An emergency medical condition is a medical or psychiatric condition that manifests itself by acute symptoms of sufficient severity (including severe pain) such that you could reasonably expect the absence of immediate medical attention to result in any of the following: serious jeopardy to your health, serious impairment to your bodily functions, or serious dysfunction of any bodily organ or part. An emergency medical condition is also "active labor," which means a labor when there is inadequate time for safe transfer to a Plan hospital (or designated hospital) before delivery or if a transfer poses a threat to the health of the member or unborn child.
