💊 Health

Neonatal Nurses typically work for hospitals in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) to provide advanced medical care to premature or fragile infants. They work closely with other Neonatal Nurses and Physicians to ensure that infants receive the care they need to improve in health and go home to their families. Their job is to assess newborns right after their birth, participate in potentially life-saving procedures and operate medical equipment like a CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) to help newborns breathe.
