The transfer of a sick newborn infant to a Newborn Intensive Care Unit evokes an acute emotional crisis for the parents. In order to help the family master this crisis, the authors have developed a parent booklet entitled, "A Sign of Hope." This pamphlet introduces the parents to Newborn Intensive Care even before the transfer of the baby to the regional hospital. By merely changing a few words, telephone numbers, and maps, this brochure can be adapted for use at most Level II or III Newborn Special Care Units.
将患病的新生儿转至新生儿重症监护病房会引发其父母的急性情感危机。为帮助家庭应对这一危机，作者编写了一本名为《希望的象征》的家长手册。这本小册子甚至在婴儿转至地区医院之前，就向家长介绍新生儿重症监护。只需更改几个词语、电话号码和地图，这本手册就能适用于大多数二级或三级新生儿特殊护理病房。
