The CRADLE.ME Referral Service provides home visits from a registered nurse at no charge to mothers and infants. The goal of this program is to reduce maternal and infant mortality through prevention services for prenatal and potpartum mothers and infants, and to support parents and caregivers raising children up to the age of 18, or 22 in some situations. They perform health assessments on mothers and babies, screen for postpartum depression, and address concerns related to drug use and domestic violence along with several other services.
If you or someone you know could use these support services, please contact the parish office at (207)924-7104 to come in and complete an informational sheet that will be sent to Ellen LaCrosse, R.N., Publish Health Nurse, who will set up services for you.
