About
Firefly at Vanderbilt University Medical Center provides prenatal and postpartum medical care, medication-assisted treatment (MAT), collaborative psychiatric/mental health care, peer recovery support, lactation support, pediatric support, and other comprehensive care services to pregnant and postpartum women with substance use disorder. Firefly is an outpatient treatment program based out of the Center for Women's Health at Vanderbilt's One Hundred Oaks clinic. Our care team sees patients 5 days/week from 8am-4:30pm. Our team of providers is comprised of physicians, nurse practitioners, social workers, peer recovery specialists, pediatricians, a lactation consultant, an early infant development specialist and other support staff. In addition to meeting the clinical needs of patients, we support patients in meeting social determinants of health needs such as transportation, housing, food, clothing, diapers, and infant care items. If patients choose to deliver at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, our team of pediatricians and pediatric nurses trained in OUD and infant substance exposure support mom and baby in the hospital in a trauma-informed environment. Firefly accepts patients with private insurance, TennCare (Medicaid), and those who are uninsured. Learn more about our program at www.fireflytn.org, or by calling 615-421-8000.
