The Safe Sleep for Babies Act of 2021 became law on May 16, officially banning the use of certain sleep products deemed hazardous to a child. This was welcome news to Ann Lambert, an associate clinical professor in Auburn’s College of Nursing, who has been a strong advocate for safe sleep practices throughout her more than 35-year career. A pediatric nurse practitioner since 2000, Lambert explains what the law means for preventing infant deaths.
Lambert has degrees from Auburn University, Auburn University at Montgomery and the University of South Alabama, as well as a post-master’s certification as a pediatric nurse practitioner from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. Lambert joined the Auburn faculty in 2013. She primarily teaches maternity and pediatric nursing content.
