Dear Colleagues
Inviting you to this 2 day conference. Day 1 is all about NEC and day 2 focussed on Neonatal QI, Improvement & Innovation. Renowned faculty and enriching discussions.
Both face to face and online registration options.
Discounted rates for LMIC.
🙏
Fantastic to finally see neonatal care leave and pay become a reality . Well done to all involved in making this happen! 🍾👏🥳
ℹ️From April 6, the new neonatal care leave and pay entitlement will give eligible parents paid time off to be by their baby’s side—without fearing losing income or rushing back to work too soon.
🗣️Bliss has fought for this moment, but now we need employers to play their part.
Make sure your organisation is ready. Share this policy with your teams so families with babies in neonatal care can be supported and get the leave they’re entitled to.
Find out more and help spread the word. ⬇️

Bliss are shining a light on full-term babies born across the country . We know at NNSIG that lots of our surgical neonates are born at term or near term. Have a look on @Blisscharity website for some useful information and resources for families. #surgicalneonates
💙This Full-Term February, we’re shining a light on the unique challenges faced by families of full-term babies in neonatal care.
Filmed on a busy neonatal ward, this video features Dr. Ngozi Edi-Osagie, NHS England's National Clinical Director for Neonatal Care, discussing why this campaign matters.
❗Did you know that 60% of the 90,000 babies admitted to neonatal units each year are born after 37 weeks? These families often feel unprepared for this journey, and that's why Bliss provides dedicated resources to support them.
👶🏾Did your full-term baby have to spend time in the Neonatal Unit? What three words would you use to sum up your experience? Tell us in the comments 👇🏾

Be aware of what’s happening regionally & nationally & ensure neonatal nurses voice gets to those meetings. @NNAUK1 have been driving engagement & now invited to many meetings but sadly were missed of list for recent mtg with Barroness Merron & other stakeholders in neonatal care
We truly value the importance of education. We have strived to promote education opportunities around neonatal surgery, hold webinars and study days. Add expert speakers to our bi-annual meetings. Do get involved nna.org.uk/special-interest-…
