We are receiving numerous inquiries about how a NICU would transition from Philips devices to The Zaky HUG and facilitate an effective and seamless implementation that results in an elevated level of evidence-based care, reduction of cost, and increase satisfaction of all stakeholders (admin, staff, patients, and parents). Here are some important points:

    • Parents scent and warm The Zaky HUG with their own skin by placing it behind the neck or on the chest for about one hour. 
    • Scent one hand by the dad and one by the mom.
    • Use it as a neck roll to provide comfort to the parent (also while in kangaroo care/skin to skin contact with The Zaky ZAK® and leave it with the patient at the end of the session.  It makes it easier for the mom to separate from her baby.)

    Other helpful facts about The Zaky HUG:

    • Parents love it. It is nurturing, intuitive, has a familiar shape so training and quality control for parents, new and experienced staff are effective.
    • Use one pair (Right and Left hands) per baby for a complete solution and neuroprotective care (easier inventory, storage, ordering, etc.)
    • Follow the same laundry protocol as clothing of patients, using a wash bag for protection (wash bag is provided.)
    • Available in 6 beautiful colors. A solid color makes it easy to identify if the baby is bleeding, medicine is leaking/wet.
    • Use with other products from The Zaky for around the clock evidence-based care: The Zaky ZAK (for kangaroo care), The Zaky ZEN (organic skin care and wellness), and The Zaky mobile application for parents.
    • and those are just a few!
