i would definitely choose #1. i see way to much improper positioning and handling during care. many of our neonates lay prone; this still puts the head in an improper position. with the amount of challenges these preemies face in their future we should be doing everything possible to ensure they get the best care. not to mention the rates of cp in neonates is very high; i wonder how this might decrease with policies on proper positioning. i believe #2 is a good choice also, however unfortunately i think its a loosing battle that has went on forever and is not going to stop anytime soon. it is just a process of new nurses becoming more confident and learning to understand senior nurses as well as senior nurses learning to trust the new grads. with turnover rates due to numerous reasons, it just doesn't feel as strong of a topic. hope this helps. good luck!
