Efforts to reduce Northeast Ohio's alarmingly high rate of infant mortality continue. On The Sound of Ideas, our Be Well Health team will lead us in a deeper look at one area where lives can be saved: safe sleep practices. We'll talk to a mom who lost her son while they slept in the same bed, and we'll discuss developing research that says sleeping on the stomach is worse for some babies than others. Later, big ideas for businesses that benefit society.
Guests:
-Sarah Jane Tribble, Health Reporter, ideastream
-Amanda Saucedo, Founder of Benny Bears, lost her son Ben while bed-sharing
-Dr. Cindee Carroll-Pankhurst, Investigator, Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner's Office
-Dr. Lolita McDavid, Director, Center for Child Advocacy & Protection, UH Rainbow Babies & Children's Hospital
