High Risk Neonate: Supervised Clinical Practice

During this first NICU supervised clinical experience, the students will begin to integrate coursework within the clinical setting. Emphasis is placed on beginning skills of physical assessment and developing the management plan. The introduction of technical skills in patient care management, including performance of selected invasive diagnostic/therapeutic procedures, is needed for the student to develop as an NNP. The student will continue to develop in the role as a neonatal nurse practitioner.
