Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP)
The Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) is an educational program jointly sponsored by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) along with the American Heart Association (AHA).
The course has been designed to teach an evidence-based approach to resuscitation of the newborn to hospital staff who care for newborns at the time of delivery, including physicians, nurses and respiratory therapists. Since the inception of the NRP in 1987, over 3 million individuals in the United States and a countless number of individuals abroad have been trained in NRP.
NRP eSim is a computer-based online neonatal resuscitation simulation exercise. This cutting-edge technology will allow learners to apply textbook knowledge, hands-on and decision-making skills in a virtual 3-D environment. The NRP eSim is part of the blended learning environment that will help learners acquire skills before the face-to-face Provider course, which allows more opportunity during the course to refine skills and work on teamwork and communication.
