What is a good amount of time to orient when transferring to nicu? I’m a new grad in mother baby and have the opportunity to transfer to a level lll nicu in a few months. I will only have about 6 months exp at that time, and orientation is 6 weeks.

Mine was 12 wks long for NICU III orientation and I think you need everyday:)

I would say that six weeks is a good start

First of all, put your grown up pants on. 6 weeks is more than enough to give you the basics. Read. Watch videos, get ready. Find the smart person on the floor and strive to be like them. Not a fan of holding hands of new nurses until they feel “comfortable”.
