Recommendations for new RN starting in NICU

[cburnham]

Hello Everyone,

I am new to things forum. I am so glad that I ran across it. In Febuary I will be starting a NICU internship (6 months). I graduate in December and will have a couple of months and I wanted to know if anyone has any suggestions about reading material or advice about what I could do in the mean time to be better prepared in February.

Thanks,

C.Dixon

Welcome to the NICU Forum! There is a lot of things you can do as 'homework' before you start. Please note the stickies @ the top of the forum. Start there, and if you have more specific questions, we will try to answer them, OK?

Best of luck in your endeavors!

Thanks so much for your response. I went through the stickies at the beginning of the forum and found some very useful information. This is an awesome site. It is great to have a place that nurses can come together and support each other. I wish I had discovered this forum when I first started nursing school.
