Abstract:
The educational programs that have been developed in newborn special care facilities have two purposes: first, they teach personnel the manual skills that are necessary to manage the sick newborn infant; second, they provide personnel with a better understanding of neonatal pathophysiology so that they can begin to recognize the subtle responses of the sick neonate. With these skills and knowledge, the nursery staff assumes a more active role in the team's effort to preserve a child's life.
