Neonatal Nurse Interview

Nurses General Nursing

Hi everyone,

I am a sophomore in high school but know I want to go into neonatal nursing as my career. One of my recent assignments is to write a research paper about this job. It needs to include what you do as work, education etc.. I also am needing to interview someone who is a neonatal nurse. Is anyone open to me asking you some questions?

Thank you for you time and consideration.

I am going to give you the standard answer for the "I need to interview a nurse" on this website. The purpose of the assignment is for you to have a face to face interview with someone. Anyone can represent themselves as who every they want on this site (they don't verify that I am a nurse with NICU as my specialty). I could work in the Dietary Dept (joke from a different thread) at a hospital and represent myself as a nurse.

It would be best to call the NICU or Labor and Delivery dept at your local hospital and make an appointment to go there and interview a nurse. You may even get to shadow a nurse and see what they do.

Call the hospital's near you and see if you can visit. Ask your guidance department also, many schools have a liaison with area hospitals. You have no idea who you are talking to on the Internet. I could be a big hairy dude who likes to play armchair nurse for all you know, although I am none of that lol

good of luck with your assignment. Shadowing in the NICU is another option. We work with high schools to provide that!
