Innovative programs teach new parents necessary skills.

MEN TEACHING MEN AT BOOT CAMP When Steve Maldonado became regional vice president for marketing at PeaceHcalth in Longvievv, WA, little did he realize that part of his role would be to teach fathers how to handle their newborns. But in addition to his marketing responsibilities, Maldonado teaches "Boot Camp for New Dads," a unique workshop for new and soon-to-be fathers developed by Boot Camp for New Dads, a nonprofit organization in Irvine, CA. One of a series of programs implemented by PeaceHealth to generate patients for PeaceHealth Medical Group, the program helps new fathers feel confident about bringing a new baby home.
