Which families can benefit from a Snuza Hero MD?
- The family/baby must be eligible for CONI programme support (in line with local CONI guidelines).
- Previously been on CONI and have lost/not returned a monitor.
- Coordinator assesses that SNUZA will be easier/more appropriate for family to use than other monitors that are available e.g. toddlers around, concerns about safety, sensors being pulled or getting tangled.
- Monitor is needed urgently due to late referral, baby is already born, no other monitors available.
- Family expressed preference for a SNUZA Hero MD, after coordinator has explained local monitor options (if appropriate).
- Baby is over 6 months old and a mattress monitor is not available.
CONI co-ordinator’s responsibility
- Discuss this arrangement with your manager who should seek local legal/governance advice before you start to talk with families.
- Coordinator assesses family suitability for Snuza Hero MD.
- Explain to family the terms of them receiving a monitor. This can be found in ‘What the family needs to know’ section below.
- CONI coordinators to follow ‘How to nominate the family’ process below.
- It is the coordinator’s responsibility to check the monitor has arrived with the family and to notify the CONI team ([email protected]) if it hasn’t arrived.
- Need to discuss limitations of monitors.
- Need to discuss what to do if the alarm goes off, this includes a plan and basic life support instruction/helping your baby until help arrives.
- Need parent/s verbal consent to send name, address and telephone number to The Lullaby Trust – this will not be used for any other reason.
What the family needs to know
- Explain to the family that it is a gift from the distributors (not the Health Visiting service or The Lullaby Trust).
- Each monitor is given on the understanding that it is for single use for their baby only; named baby basis.
- Family are responsible for the monitor and can keep it i.e. do not return it to The Lullaby Trust or co-ordinator/HV.
- Monitor will be sent directly to their home (we need their home address, but it will not be used for anything else).
- Delivery takes approximately 5 working days from request. Unfortunately, it does not fit through a standard letter box so instructions about a safe place to leave it, if not at home, is required.
- If the monitor is lost/broken they may be lent another sort of monitor locally but the offer of a SNUZA Hero MD is not usually repeated.
- Any complaints or problems with the monitor should be reported to www.snuza.com and then their co-ordinator.
- An additional Lullaby Trust/CONI appropriate information leaflet is contained within the monitor box.
- Ask parent/s if they will be willing to give feedback to The Lullaby Trust (either telephone interview or online) when they are nominated for a monitor.
