I had to be hyper aware at all times that an infant can bottom out and life saving measures must be initiated immediately. I provided complete patient care for up to five patients. My care includes in depth assessments, medications, diaper changes, feeds and working with specialized equipment such as patient issolettes, ventilators, Intravenous pumps and other various devices. I also possess comprehensive understanding of the medications commonly used in treating infants and newborns.
