A neonatal nurse is a professional with special training, skill, and knowledge in the care of newborns and their families. The neonatal nurse is accountable to the patient, profession, and employer. Failure of the neonatal nurse to meet these obligations can result in liability in the profession, liability in the employment, a civil suit, or a criminal conviction. Regardless of the health care setting, professional nurses, whether at the bedside or in advanced practice, are morally, ethically, and legally accountable for their nursing judgments and actions. Although most nurses assume they will never be named in a lawsuit, and it is true that few are, their professional actions can be the focus of a suit. An overview of the legal implications found within neonatal nursing practice is presented. Two recent legal cases are presented and discussed to illustrate neonatal nursing and advanced practice liability.
新生儿护士是在新生儿及其家庭护理方面接受过特殊培训、具备特殊技能和知识的专业人员。新生儿护士对患者、职业和雇主负责。新生儿护士未能履行这些义务可能导致职业责任、就业责任、民事诉讼或刑事定罪。无论医疗保健环境如何，专业护士，无论是在床边护理还是从事高级实践，都要对其护理判断和行为承担道德、伦理和法律责任。尽管大多数护士认为自己永远不会被卷入诉讼，而且确实很少有人会，但他们的专业行为可能会成为诉讼的焦点。本文概述了新生儿护理实践中的法律影响。介绍并讨论了两个近期的法律案例，以说明新生儿护理和高级实践责任。
