Pediatric Neonatology (NICU) Fellowship

Training mode

You join the neonatal intensive care unit as a fellow under an assigned senior consultant, one-to-one, for the full placement.

• In the NICU: you manage newborns alongside your consultant. Your role in procedures grows from assisting to performing, as your consultant judges you ready.
• In the delivery room: you join the team for neonatal resuscitation at high-risk births.
• Follow-up: you take part in high-risk newborn follow-up clinics.
• Academic: you take part in case discussions.

Your actual level of involvement (observing, assisting, or performing steps under supervision) is decided by your supervising consultant, based on your previous experience, skills, competency, and overall performance.

Highlights

• Neonatal resuscitation
• Ventilation and CPAP
• Umbilical lines and PICC insertion
