KidSTART at NUH is a government-led initiative which seeks to provide support services to vulnerable pregnant mothers. This program has been highly successful in helping underprivileged pregnant mothers deliver a healthy baby and to ensure that the newborn gets the best start in life. Through home visits, the program actively engages families, social/community partners and government agencies to provide systematic, integrated and holistic support. The program aims to engage families from the early pregnancy period to maximize the health of both mother and baby, to support breastfeeding and to foster mother-child bonding so as to enhance child development and potential during the first 3 years of life.

The Case Management Officer's role is to provide holistic support for pregnant mothers and their newborns. The overall aim is to enhance the families' knowledge and compliance to medical advice so that the pregnancy proceeds smoothly. After delivery, the case management officer works closely with the rest of the KidSTART at NUH team of medical social workers, nurses and clinicians, in order that the care and development of the new-born is optimized as far as possible. The case management officer helps to facilitate and coordinate support from all relevant community agencies for the benefit of the pregnant mother and the newborn.
