The conversation emphasizes the important role that NICU nurses and APRNs play, not only in providing exceptional care in the NICU but also in preparing families for life after the NICU. Dr. Kelly shares practical strategies for family education, discharge counseling, and long-term follow-up, helping nurses empower parents with the knowledge and resources they need as their child grows.
