Public Health Nurse Visits 

Public Health Nurse visits include education and support to you for:
  • Having a healthier pregnancy and baby
  • Breastfeeding support
  • Weighing and measuring your baby
  • Learning skills to meet your child's needs
  • Increasing your confidence as a parent

Public Health Nurses also work with the Minnesota Department of Health to educate, support, and provide resources to families who have a child with elevated lead levels, hearing loss, and/or birth defects and with families who have experienced the loss of a child due to Sudden Unexpected Infant Deaths.
