RCT on Maternal stress and neonatal stress at NICU: Neonatal Nurse Navigator Program. (Scopus (Q1) publication)

Check out the latest episode of our CARE OUTLOUD PODCAST: Beyond the Tubes: A Deep Dive into Neonatal Compassion and Connection with Jen Deeney In the world of neonatal nursing, the challenges are immense, but the joys and triumphs are unparalleled. This intimate realm, where new life meets its first hurdles, is a place of intense emotion, dedication, and profound care. In a revealing conversation between Mary Coughlin and Jen Deeney, we're taken on a journey through the intricacies of neonatal nursing, offering profound insights into the care of the most vulnerable among us. Unlike other nursing specialties, neonatal nursing isn't just about the infants; it's equally about the families. Deeney highlights that "NICU isn't just about intensive care of the baby. It's about intensive care of the family." This dual focus requires a deeply empathetic and person-centric approach, acknowledging the evolving relationship between newborns and their families. The exchange between Coughlin and Deeney sheds light on the crucial aspect of trauma-informed care within the NICU setting. Coughlin poignantly states, "it can be scary? It can be scary for me to lean into your suffering, especially if I don't even know you". This acknowledgment of fear and hesitation among nurses underlines the necessity for education and open-heartedness in facing shared human experiences, reminding us that to care effectively, one must also care empathetically. Both speakers advocate for showing compassion openly and allowing oneself to feel and share emotions within professional boundaries. As Deeney beautifully sums up, "The day you don't feel it is the day you shouldn't be a nurse." In conclusion, neonatal nursing is more than just a profession; it's a calling that demands a harmonious blend of clinical expertise and deep-rooted empathy. This enlightening dialogue between Mary Coughlin and Jen Deeney unveils the soul of neonatal nursing, reminding us that at the heart of care lies the courage to connect, understand, and ultimately, heal. https://lnkd.in/e4hEtBEw #NANN #COINN #NAPSW #NHSFOUNDATIONTRUST #LIVERPOOLWOMENS #TRAUMAINFOMREDPROFESSIOANL #CARINGESSENTIALS
