NAS: withdrawal symptoms experienced by the infant after birth affecting the autonomic, gastrointestinal and the neurological systems. The National Survey on Drug Use and Health Statistics in their 2014 research stated: an estimated 225,000 infants are exposed to illicit substances each year and the numbers are increasing; every 25 minutes an infant is born exposed to opioids and is diagnosed with NAS. In 2014 the annual health care cost was $1.5 billion for infants with NAS admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and stayed for 16 or more days. The health care costs can be lowered if information \/ education regarding opioids \u0026amp; pregnancy are given to the mother early.\u003cbr\u003e The Positive Direction Model is an educational guide specifically for pregnant women, families and advocates as they are collaborating with health care \/ medical providers during pregnancy under the guidance of a Navigator. The Positive Direction Model prepares the mother of expectations during pregnancy along with understanding NAS. The results of the Positive Direction Model: increase self-efficacy, a safe delivery of the infant and continued sobriety for a healthy environment beyond the pregnancy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Davina Moss-King\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1524669059\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781524669058\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Authorhouse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/30\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 76\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.18d","brand":"Davina Moss-King","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48113609900287,"sku":"9781524669058","price":11.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7aaafd62-3eda-4478-85f6-f543e7dc91f8.jpg?v=1769616142","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-positive-direction-model-davina-moss-king-9781524669058","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
