Baby cuddler volunteer sounds so soothing for both the baby and the volunteer
It really is!! I loved doing it 😊
Like this video if you want to be a NICU nurse and if I should make more NICU related content!! 👍🏻
I love babies so that’s one of the reasons I want to do NICU nursing!
Hope you get the chance one day! 💕
Love this! My dream when I was in 8th grade was to be a nicu nurse.Thinking abt this career again.
This sounds like my dream job! 💕 🤱🏻
I think I want to go into NICU nursing as well!! When in nursing school do you have to learn about and take tests relating to adult diseases or can you just focus on infants? I don’t think adult patient care is for me but neonatal sounds like the dream!
I cant wait to watch tonight!!🤍🤍
Nursing school is very broad and general and you learn all sorts from adults to infants. You cannot choose what you want to focus on. Luckily at my school, the last semester for our senior preceptorship we can choose a unit we want to focus on and do our rotations there. Hopefully you get to do nicu one day! 😊
Well, I've taken the exams for the 2nd time now and still didn't succeed, i wonder how those who succeeded did it. 😭💔💔
Just say "I haven't passed yet." Don't
take it as a failure but see it as a learning opportunity. There is a lot of power in "Yet"; you are telling yourself that you will get there and that your eyes and heart are still fixed on your goal
I failed twice, i lost money to reviews that never helped but the major thing is that l've not lost hope.
Thank you for the information!
Wonderful and informative . Thankyou so much Tiff for all the info
Glad it was helpful! 😊
I just graduated high school and have chosen to try to become a NICU nurse because my little sister was born with Down syndrome and spent 36 days in the NICU. I really hope all goes well.
Any updates?
I love babies I’ve been dreaming of being a NICU nurse since 6th grade now a freshman I’m still guaranteed it’s what I want to do in life willing to put in the hard work it takes to achieve this career when the time comes hoping to attend TTU :)
Same! Im about to be a freshman and ive been interested in being a NICU nurse since 6th as well
Hello Tiffany! I'm a recent college graduate. I went straight to a University undeclared, but soon after realized that I wanted to go into nursing. The closest thing my college had to "nursing" was human development, which I did indeed major in as well as psychology. My dream job is to my NICU nurse and I have done my own research, but I have no specific idea of how to get there. If you can give some advice of where to start like start off applying to a CNA program, etc, I would gladly appreciate it! Thank you!
Great video which stethoscope do you have? what do you pay attention to when listening?
Hello thank you for the video! I am currently a sophomore and I didn't know what I wanted to do with my life so I am currently undecided. I started researching and NICU RN really stood out to me. I am aware that I am a bit late to this game. So I was wondering if I can still become a NICU RN by going to an accelerated BSN program?
Any recommendations for online NRP courses?
Once you have your 2 years of experience in level 3 nicu to be able to travel, do you have to stay in level 3 to travel or find jobs or do they just want you to have the experience? I hope that makes sense
I want to become a NICU nurse, this is my last semester and because if covid, our school is not doing senior preceptorship, and NICU is closed for students and volunteering. :(
Oh no! I’m sorry to hear that 😢
Can you go over the departments within pediatric care? Would PICU be the next bump up from NICU? You mentioned they transfer 6-8 month old babies to other units. I’m interested in NICU plus populations under 7. Thanks!
Yes picu is considered the sister unit to nicu which takes patients from 1 month to 18+ years old
Does it have a specific grade to be a NICU nurse?
Hello, if you don't mind sharing, what nursing school did you go to?
Gonna do a video where I reveal my nursing school soon!
11 years nursing not one desire to do NICU or kids. I did trauma Neuro pcu most career last 2 years have gone into SICU. The only thing I'm jealous of is that your patients don't weigh a lot so they are way easier to bathe and easier on the back 🤣.
what do i do after earning bsn ? grad school/nursing school ? im so confused on the order lol
Typically it’s high school -> nursing school where you can graduate with your BSN -> take NCLEX to become a registered nurse (RN)
@@TiffanyRNnicunursetiff After u got u pass the exam, what do you have to take next to become a NICU nurse? I think there would be additional years in college and take the NICU exam
Nope just applied to any hospital’s NICU after becoming an RN
Ocupie
how many years in total were you in college for?
4 years
Can a guy be a nicu nurse??
Yes of course! We have a few male Nicu nurses on my unit 👍🏻
