INTRODUCTION
Title
A report to promote better clinical skills of Neonatal care for junior nurse
Overview of the topic and its need
Neonatal care is a type of care which majorly deals with care of baby born who are either
sick or premature who receives proper care within Neonatal care (Afulani and et. al., 2020).
Neonatal care I one of those department of the healthcare settings which requires a greater
number of advance clinical skills especially with nurses and doctors who take care of such kind
of babies. This is majorly because nurses in this care unit are the one who take care of most
vulnerable and little members of the society who require crucial and top level of care so because
of this it becomes extremity important for nurses to enhance their clinical skills so that they can
take care of such babies in a more proper and appropriate manner (Shao and et. al., 2018). This
is one of the main reasons because of which it becomes extremely important for junior nurses to
develop clinical skills so that they can fulfil their roles and responsibilities towards baby care in
Neonatal care. This is the main reason which helps in developing and identifying need of this
study i.e. to promote better clinical skills of Neonatal care for junior nurse. This project will help
in explaining project topic in a clear manner, aim and objectives of the research, background of
the project, brief of the project study, evidence and proof of the study, overall budget in which
this project will be completed, Gannt chart which will help in explaining overall schedule of the
project and activity bifurcation. Other than this in this project leadership and change
management model will be explained, success evaluation criteria will be explained,
recommendation and conclusion in a proper manner.
BACKGROUND
Neonatal care are specialized nurseries that are basically designed as an intensive care
unit for taking care of babies who are either sick or premature (Marc-Aurele and English, 2017).
So, for the first 28 days of the life cycle they are take care of in intensive care which is
specifically developed for their care known as Neonatal care. This project will basically focus on
promotion of clinical skills within junior nurses working in Neonatal care units. This project will
also help in explaining reason because of which it becomes important for junior nurses to learn
and develop clinical skills for Neonatal care, not only his, this project will also helps in
explaining role of junior nurses within Neonatal care unit and what are their main roles and

healthcare organization in promoting clinical skills and ways or methods that can be used for
promotion of clinical skills of Neonatal care can be promoted for junior nurse in such a manner
that junior nurses can skills themselves in this field.
JUSTIFICATION
The researcher in this research will focus upon explaining types of clinical skills of

and overall performance of junior nurses in a proper and appropriate manner. Completion of this
project will further help in creating more opportunities for other researcher who want to carry out
