HONOLULU, Hawaii (June, 7, 2017) --According to the National Center on Shaken Baby Syndrome, between two weeks of age and two months old, babies enter a phase known as the “Period of PURPLE crying”, a time where babies cry more than any other time. These bouts can run anywhere between 35 minutes or up to five hours and still be considered within the normal range. This is also a span of time where the highest rates of non-accidental infant injury occur. Regional Health Command-Pacific sponsored a training March 31, 2017, with support from the Military Family Advocacy Coordinating Council, to improve Period of PURPLE crying training and roll-out efforts among social work professionals from the military and civilian community. The half-day session was designed to identify gaps in program deliveries and to come up with ways to streamline efforts. (Stock image)
