Since 2021, NICU RNs partnered with Emergency Department staff to develop an Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) training specifically geared to the Emergency Department nurses and physicians. There are over 30 ED nurses and physicians who have attended an NRP session. The participants gain evidence-based neonatal resuscitation education and skills through a blended learning approach, which include online learning/testing, in-person updates, and hands-on skills practice.
Special recognition goes to Michelle Papasan, MSN, RN (NICU) for her efforts in developing the ED Neonatal Resuscitation Program. Pictured above: Megan Thoresen, MSN, RN, CEN, CPEN; Tiffany Baugh, RN; Dulcelena Pureco, MSN, RN, CEN, CPEN; Iris Robnett, BSN, RN; and Hamza Makhlaf, RN, CEN.
