All nursing practice is based on the legal scope of practice, national and specialty nursing standards, CNMC Policies and Procedures, and in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations. The Professional Model of Care requires registered professional nurses to be responsible and accountable for their own practice.

The NICU Transport Nurse will provide safe and effective inter-hospital transport of a wide variety of pediatric patients.
