Candace Burton (Nursing) is senior mentor to the lead author and co-author of a newly published study on the experiences of mothers whose children were in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) in the journal Advances in Neonatal Care. The publication was led by Sarah Rodrigues, now a post-doctoral associate of the University of California Irvine, and reports on the differences in expectations and experiences of this population in terms of caring for their hospitalized infants. Outcomes included maternal depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms.
