Neonatology Nurse Practitioner at Lancesoft INC summary:
As a Neonatology Nurse Practitioner in a Level 1 nursery, I manage the care of newborns with daily rounds and attend deliveries when needed. I am responsible for stabilizing and transporting newborns requiring higher-level care to nearby hospitals. This role offers opportunities for supplemental shifts in a Level III NICU, enhancing care for vulnerable infants.
- This Level 1 unit will have an anticipated 600 deliveries a year
- An average daily census of about 5 newborns
- NNPs will be responsible for daily rounds on newborns, attending deliveries when requested and will take call from home
- Practitioners would also stabilize, manage and facilitate transport of newborns to adjacent NICUs in Charlotte or Gastonia for newborns needing higher level care
- Opportunities to do supplemental PRN shifts at the level III NICU in Gastonia may be possible; but would not be required, as this position is for the Level 1 nursery.
