Clinical Nurse Specialist

Neonatal Intensive Care Unit

Few expectant parents consider the possibility that their baby may need special medical care after birth. Rest assured, that Northridge Hospital features a brand new Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) staffed by expert neonatologists and neonatal nurses. It's twice the square footage as our previous unit, allowing for private rooms, double-sized rooms to accommodate twins, lactation areas and sleeping accommodations for a parent/care partner. Intensive care for infants is provided at three levels. Level I NICUs treat normal newborns requiring a bit of additional nursing care, while Level II NICUs treat moderately ill babies.

A Level III NICU, like ours at Northridge Hospital, provides advanced treatment for seriously ill, low birth weight and premature babies, including micropreemies. This is a designation only given to hospitals that can care for the most complicated births and provide immediate surgery, if needed, for premature babies. Our NICU gives infants a greater chance to thrive. It's designed to provide an atmosphere that limits stress to the infant and meets basic needs of warmth, nutrition and protection to assure proper growth and development.

As a Clinical Nurse Specialist you will be responsible for a variety of tasks that lead to a high level of customer satisfaction in the most cost effective manner. The Neonatal Clinical Nurse Specialist is a registered nurse with advanced knowledge and clinical expertise in neonatal intensivecare nursing. The Neonatal Clinical Nurse Specialist assesses the needs of patients and family units within the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and assists in the planning, execution, and evaluation of nursing care. The CNS is an expert practitioner whose goal is to realize optimum quality nursing practice through direct patient care, clinical staff development, consultation, and research. All employees are expected to perform their duties in alignment with the vision and values of the organization.
