The focus of theNeonatal Nurse Practitioner (NNP) SIG is to support advanced neonatal clinical education, provide guidance for neonatal nursing clinicians interested in pursuing the NNP career pathway, and link NNPs and candidates together in a mentorship framework. The SIG aims to become a preferred source for expert commentary regarding the role for regulatory, professional and educational bodies within Australia.
