Competencies & Orientation Toolkit for Neonatal Nurse Practitioners, 2nd Edition

The new and improved Competencies and Orientation Toolkit for Neonatal Nurse Practitioners, 2nd edition, is a valuable asset for both NNPs and for preceptors and staff educators who work with NNPs.

The goal of this toolkit is to establish consistent expectations concerning competencies for NNPs at varying levels and to provide a method of evaluating competence in order to assure the public that the NNP possesses the knowledge, skill, and clinical judgment required for providing safe, effective care.

Each 90-page book includes downloadable documents, including seven appendices, to facilitate individual use by NNPs and their supervisors.
