Maternal Child Health Program & Children with Special Health Care Needs
Maternal Child Health
The Jackson County Public Health’s Maternal
Child Health (MCH) program is a newborn home visiting program that provides
physical assessment, psycho-social support and anticipatory guidance to new
families. The primary goal is to target children with special health care needs
and/or children of young/single parents and other factors that may put that
child at risk.
The Amish Home Visiting Program is the most recent addition to the MCH
program and provides prenatal, postpartum and infant assessments of the Amish
women and their infants.
