What is a NNP?

A Neonatal Nurse Practitioner (NNP) is a highly specialized advanced practice nurse who provides care for newborn infants, particularly those who are premature or have medical complications. NNPs work in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) and are responsible for assessing and diagnosing newborns, developing and implementing treatment plans, prescribing medications, and providing education and support to families. They collaborate with a team of healthcare professionals to ensure the best possible outcomes for their tiny patients. NNPs must have a strong understanding of neonatal physiology and pathology, as well as excellent clinical skills and the ability to work in high-stress environments.
