Summary

This study tests a program to help nurses in a newborn intensive care unit become more aware of each other's skills and abilities. The goal is to see if this improves teamwork, reduces burnout, and makes staff feel safer speaking up. About 160 nurses will take part, and researchers will use surveys and interviews to measure the effects.
