As a neonatal nurse, your main focus is caring for newborns. There are three levels in the neonatal nursing specialty:
- Level I care for healthy infants.
- Level II nurses are much more in demand because premature and sick babies need constant attention.
- Level III nurses have the most intensive responsibilities, working in the NICU and monitoring seriously ill or premature infants around the clock. They check ventilators and incubators, make sure babies are responding well, and teach parents how to care for their infants properly.
