2019 Visiting Scholar Tour
Wednesday 23rd October 2019, CanberraInvited Speaker: Dr Nancy Feeley, School of Nursing, McGill University, Canada
Dr. Feeley’s research focuses on the psychological well-being of, and resources available to, parents of very
low birth-weight (VLBW) infants. She received the FRSQ Clinician Research Scholar Career Award for 2008 - 2012 for this work. She has
conducted a clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of an intervention program to reduce anxiety and enhance the parenting behavior of
mothers of VLBW infants, examined the responses of parents to the NICU environment, compared the responses of mothers and fathers, and
examined post-traumatic stress symptoms in mothers of VLBW infants.
