The Neonatal Resuscitation Program® (NRP®) is an educational program created by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and the American Heart Association (AHA). The NRP 8th Edition course is designed to deliver an evidence-based approach to resuscitation of the newborn to hospital staff who care for newborns. NRP utilizes a blended learning approach, which includes online testing and hands-on case-based simulation/debriefing that focus on critical leadership, communication, and teamwork skills. Since the inception of the NRP in 1987, over 4 million individuals in the United States and internationally have been trained.
Below you will find the resources you need to combine simulation, debriefing, and team development for a complete training solution to prepare your learners in handling neonatal emergencies.
Introduction of key concepts and resuscitation algorithms using resources such as textbooks and mixed media to provide an individualized learning experience and understanding of the principles of NRP.
NRP 8th Edition Course Materials
Repetitive practice with task trainers and manikins supports the development of psychomotor skills.

Simulation and debriefing allow learners to rehearse real-world scenarios, improving teamwork, leadership, and communication skills for actual resuscitation.
For learning to be effective and efficient, clear learning objectives must be outlined. Within each of the five steps in the Circle of Learning, the objectives must be observable, measurable, learner-centered, and action-oriented.
