For this weeks episode I travelled to the NETS (The Newborn & paediatric Emergency Transport Service) base to talk to retrieval/PICU /NICU nurse Gillian Massey. Gill has extensive experience in paediatric and neonatal intensive care and has been working at NETS for 6 years. On this episode we cover: what is NETS, how the Neonatal/paediatric retrieval system works, how patients are triaged, what it's like to work at NETS, PPHN, nitric oxide and Gill's most exciting moment. We also dicussed paediatric/neonatal death and the impact it has on your personal life.
