UNA Supports Perinatal Care

This project was created by faculty from the Anderson College of Nursing and Health Professions at the University of North Alabama. Dr. Melissa DeFoor, Assistant Professor of Maternity Nursing, and Dr. Ann-Marie Irons, Assistant Professor, had a vision to improve perinatal care across the community through a fun, baby shower-like event.
