Literature
“Few NICUs offer staff education that teaches optimal methods of
communication with parents in distress. Limited staff education in
how to best provide psychosocial support to families is one factor
that may render those who work in the NICU at risk for burnout,
compassion fatigue and secondary traumatic stress syndrome.
The goal is to deliver care that exemplifies the belief that
providing psychosocial care and support to the family is equal in
importance to providing medical care and developmental support
to the baby.”
Hall, S. L., Cross, J., Selix, N. W., Patterson, C., Segre, L., Chuffo-Siewert, R., . . . Martin, M. L. (2015). Recommendations for enhancing psychosocial support of NICU parents through staff education and support. Journal of Perinatology, 35(S1). doi:10.1038/jp.2015.147

What students are saying……
“This lesson helped to cement my current knowledge base and affirm the importance of including the parents as team members. Communication is the basis for all things and can always be improved upon.”
What students are saying……
“I just completed the on line training program and it was great! I loved everything. Well done.”
What students are saying……
“I found it user-friendly and informative! The multimedia aspect as well as the input from different perspectives (parents and staff) made it interesting and less like a standard required course. I kind of just got lost in it. Thanks so much!”
