What do Low-Risk Neonatal Registered Nurses do?

Low-risk neonatal registered nurses assess, care for, and support neonate-aged infants with less severe or acute medical needs in specialized units, such as Level II or special care units. 

Their duties include monitoring vital signs, administering medications and feedings, providing comfort, educating parents on at-home care, and identifying abnormal conditions that require further assessment or intervention.  

What they do

Assessment and Monitoring: Regularly assess the infant’s condition, including vital signs, weight, and development, to differentiate between normal and abnormal findings. 

Hands-On Care: Provide daily care, including feeding, changing, and bathing, to ensure the infant remains clean, warm, and comfortable. 

Medication and Support: Administer medications, IV fluids, and monitor for metabolic and other disorders. 

Emergency Response: Be prepared to respond to emergencies, potentially involving basic life support for neonates. 

Parental Education and Support: Educate parents and families on at-home care for their newborn and provide emotional support to help them cope. 

Environment

Low-risk neonatal nurses typically work in: 

  • Level II nurseries and special care units within hospitals.
  • Step-down units or chronic care units for less critically ill newborns.
  • Community and home settings for follow-up care.

Certification

The Low-Risk Neonatal Intensive Care Nursing (RNC-LRN) certification recognizes registered nurses with advanced specialty knowledge and experience in caring for low-risk neonates.
