Abstract

Neonatal resuscitation program (NRP) is a set of interventions that may be performed to assist a newborn after delivery with airway, breathing, and circulation. It is crucial for all members of the healthcare team caring for a newborn to hold this certification and demonstrate competency. Typically, NRP course renewals occur every two years. If delivery situations do not regularly require further implementation of NRP interventions, it may become more difficult for nurses and other members of the healthcare team to feel confident with their skills. The purpose of this study is to explore how monthly simulation experiences in the obstetrics department affect nurses and their confidence and competency levels in neonatal resuscitation.
