I was wondering if anyone could give me some info on neonatal nurse practitioners. Specifically I was wondering about the hours they work on your units. On call time? Do they often work weekends? Nights? Holidays? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

We are with pediactrix. We have an NNP on 24/7 to attend mecs/deliveries and round on our babes in the ICN and SCN. They work 24hr shifts about 5-6 days a month.

We always have one on from 7a-7p. The stepdown NNP works from 6a-3p weekdays. Every other day we have one on from 7p-7a. They don't take call and no 24 hour shifts anymore.
