High Care Neonatal Nurse

As a high care neonatal nurse, you will work in the Emma Children's Hospital of Amsterdam UMC. You provide specialized care to newborns from 28 weeks of pregnancy and work closely with fellow nurses, doctors, and other disciplines.

You work according to the principles of developmental care and family integrated care. Thanks to our couplet care rooms and single bed units, mother (parents) and child can stay together during admission. Because of this, you also work closely with the maternity and obstetrics departments.

Your duties include

• providing high care to premature infants and sick newborns;
• collaborating with doctors, nurses, and other disciplines in a multidisciplinary team;
• applying developmental care and family integrated care;
• contributing to quality improvement through working groups and projects.

Do you want to further develop into an ICU neonatal nurse? Then you will follow a shortened and personalized training program within the department. You will receive guidance from experienced colleagues and learn step-by-step how to provide care to this vulnerable patient group.
