About the Author

Miranda Hatchko and Marina Habashy are fourth-year Health Sciences students. They joined this internship with the intention of using any knowledge gained from the experience to aid them as they work to advance in the professional healthcare world. Miranda and Marina would like to extend their gratitude to Dr. Erin Rolle, Misbah Kauser, Kerri Stephen, Amarillis Santos, Michena Casimir-Raggs, Adriana Abello, Lisa Houpt, Augie Regal, and all staff members at the Healthy Start Coalition of Osceola County for the opportunity to work on this project.

Abstract, Summary, or Creative Statement

Healthy Start Coalition of Osceola County's primary objective is to reduce infant mortality and to promote the well-being of families. One of the proposed ways to reduce infant deaths is to provide education and guidance to mothers in their third trimester through interconception education and counseling (ICC) calls. We were tasked with calling these mothers and providing information to them regarding medical resources, contraception information, a brief overviews of SIDS and shaken baby syndrome, baby spacing, and advising them of various programs available to them to aid them as they prepare to raise a child. Through this experience, we were able to learn how to communicate with members of the community and properly convey information in an easily digestible manner.
