With much evidence pointing to the benefits of glucose gel as a viable, effective, and inexpensive treatment option, teams across the state are giving it a go. Utilizing the PQCNC webinar resources available to them is proving useful - teams are sharing the videos on proper glucose gel administration with all staff to educate them on proper technique to achieve optimal glucose absorption. With baseline data showing over 60% of teams not using gel as a treatment option, the potential to improve care provided to newborns, keep moms and babies together, and promote breastfeeding efforts by our highly engaged teams is tremendous. The video is available on the NHPC webinar page to view at any time to support implementation efforts.
