NURS 636

Neonatal Nurse Practitioner Residency I

The purpose of the NNP Residency is to provide neonatal nurse practitioner students with learning opportunities that facilitate continued development in the Neonatal Nurse Practitioner role. Students will work with preceptors in a Level III-IV NICU's to advance the knowledge and skills acquired in previous coursework. This course provides the student with an immersion into the Neonatal Nurse Practitioner (NNP) role that allows development of increased skill and independence in decision-making as a NNP. Students are expected to identify, interpret, and apply current evidence to their practice and clinical decision-making in the care of critically ill infants
