Featuring 70 powerful, real-world narratives, NICU Nursing Stories: A Day in the Life of a NICU Nurse provides readers with a deeply personal yet highly practical window into the realities of neonatal intensive care nursing. Utilizing a storytelling framework, readers engage with experiences written by skilled and practiced NICU nurses. The stories highlight the intense day-to-day struggles, miracles, ethical dilemmas, stresses, and heartache NICU nurses experience throughout their careers. Readers also learn about the intelligence, compassion, and sacrifice required of those who regularly face life-or-death decisions caring for critically ill infants and their families.

Reflective questions at the end of each story and a section in the back of the book for reflective journaling provide readers with ample opportunities to process their feelings. Additionally, seven case studies include extensive content, which can be utilized within any course.

NICU Nursing Stories is the ideal supplementary resource for courses and programs in nursing and those outside of nursing education looking to get a glimpse of a day in the life of a NICU nurse.
