Summary

Part of a behavioural competency series, this short explainer covers effective communication with NICU families: listening, explaining without jargon, including parents, checking understanding with teach-back, and offering consistent support. It contrasts simply giving accurate information with helping families genuinely understand terms such as CPAP, FiO2 and enteral feeds.
