Area of Science:

  • Neonatal care
  • Health equity
  • Nursing research

Background:

  • Racial health inequities persist in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), despite advancements in neonatal care.
  • Infants from minority groups are less likely to receive recommended treatments in NICUs.
  • Healthcare providers recognize the need to increase awareness of health inequities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess current health equity initiatives within the neonatal nursing community.
  • To gather feedback from the National Association of Neonatal Nurses (NANN) membership on advancing racial equity.
  • To identify strategies for improving health equity in neonatal care.

Main Methods:

  • A cross-sectional survey was distributed to active NANN members in January 2021.
  • The anonymous survey collected data on racial equity initiatives, recommendations, and demographics.
  • Descriptive and thematic analyses were used to analyze the survey data.

Main Results:

  • 325 NANN members completed the survey; most were White (83%), female (96%), staff nurses (42%), and highly experienced (69%).
  • A majority (69%) were aware of NANN's racial equity position statement.
  • Recommendations for advancing racial equity were categorized into research, education, workforce diversity, communication, scholarships, resources, and community outreach.

Conclusions:

  • NANN members provided actionable recommendations to advance health equity in the neonatal community and organization.
  • Suggestions include increasing diversity, inclusion, and equity education at conferences and in publications.
  • Creating scholarships or reduced membership fees was recommended to encourage diverse enrollment.
