Where You’ll Work
We have a 7-9 bed level 2 NICU and18 bed postpartum unit. We keep 32 weeks and above, however, with being located right off I-25 we see all gestations. The APP is in house 24/7 and the neonatologist rounds in person daily. Our unit is unique because all of our NICU nurses function in the transition and postpartum role. This allows for a very cohesive and close team! We will thoroughly train you and make sure you are comfortable and competent!
Due to the structure and size of our NICU and fluctuations in NICU census, the NICU team is expected to cross train to PP and the transition RN role. You will receive an orientation to that role and we will support your learning needs to ensure you feel comfortable coming off orientation.
