Abstract

The article discusses the process of curriculum development, delivery and evaluation of a post-registration neonatal surgical care module for neonatal nurses. The module was set up in response to the Neonatal Taskforce recommendations published in 2009 and the first intake of 28 attendees has now completed. The issues discussed in this paper aim to inform and add to knowledge in the field of neonatal education in relation to broadening the scope of content within neonatal Continuous Professional Development (CPD) curricula. This has, to date, been mainly medical focused and dedicating CPD modules to neonatal surgical practice specifically is a recent positive development in this speciality.
