NEONATAL CARE 2023
ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
Caring for premature or ill infants presents significant challenges in terms of nursing care, medical treatment, and technology. New research and methods are required to improve care, increase survival rates, and simultaneously enhance the working conditions for staff, especially in a time when retaining and recruiting personnel is difficult.
At this year's conference, we welcome back some of the most highly regarded speakers from last year to give those who missed the previous conference an opportunity to participate in these inspiring and educational sessions. During this year's conference, you will also have the chance to listen to current studies and projects, such as the SAVE study and projects related to circadian rhythm lighting.
