NOEP is a clinical education program that consists of sixteen (16) narrated education modules. NOEP is designed to provide nurses with theoretical knowledge needed to provide holistic, family-centered care in newborn care settings.  

The content in NOEP is based on the most up-to-date information available. Each module has been updated based on new recommendations, evidence, and reference materials. NOEP is appropriate for new graduate nurses as well as nurses who are experienced, but new to the neonatal care setting. Using NOEP as part of your educational plan can help to ensure that all new nurses receive a consistent, comprehensive orientation.   

This didactic content is a component of a comprehensive orientation for nurses. NOEP should be accompanied by guided clinical experience to permit real-time integration and application of the concepts and information presented. Each module is broken down into smaller segments providing learners snackable bites of information to discuss and digest.
