About this listen
Day One Meds” explores the three essential medications newborns receive within the first 24 hours of life including the Hepatitis B vaccine, erythromycin eye ointment, and the vitamin K shot. In this episode we break down the purpose and importance of each medication and how they protect newborns from serious infections, bleeding disorders, and long term health complications. We also discuss the potential risks and implications if these interventions are declined. As future health care providers we reflect on our role in educating and supporting families by providing clear, compassionate information and addressing concerns with empathy and evidence based guidance. “Day One Meds” emphasizes how early preventive care sets the foundation for a healthy start in every newborn’s life.
