Abstract 

Our world is shrinking because of computerized linkages and the mobility of society. Information is shared rapidly around the world. Issues surrounding newborn and infant nursing are global. In efforts to acknowledge the international community, each Newborn and Infant Nursing Review (NAINR) issue will feature a column that highlights care-related issues from a featured country or region of the world. This article focuses on Russia. Newborn and infant health issues are global ones. To review issues occurring in different areas of the world, different areas of the globe that address NAINR's theme-oriented topic will be featured. This month, Hospital No. 1 in Saint Petersburg, Russia, will be featured. Our guest author is Marina Boykova, RN.

Keywords: Discharge, Family, Infant health, Russia
