Well-Baby Care & Support
The Stoney Health Service’s Well-Baby program is built around a circle of care and trust between Stoney Nakoda Nation families and our nursing and support staff.
From the earliest weeks of pregnancy to their child entering school at age 5, families can count on a dedicated nurse and family support assistant to provide consistent medical care and parenting advice grounded in Stoney traditions and cultural practices.
