In this paper we re-read the NICU to consider the multiple acts/ practices of care that take place and argue that these acts of care are both a joint accomplishment of the community that comes together in the NICU and are part of a space where power over knowledge, training, and participation in care work unfolds in messy and uneven ways. As parents participate in the medical care, such as providing support for the nursing staff who are doing "cares" and through kangaroo care and the provision (when possible) of human milk, another site of care is found in making the NICU a care-full space. ./cache/cord-325785-87wh5cct.txt ./txt/cord-325785-87wh5cct.txt
