The Wild Life of Compassionate Care in the NICU with Meredith Murray
Certified Child Life Specialist, Jessica Lewin, talks with friend and CCLS, Meredith Murray, about how her lifelong magnetism towards babies led her to a career in the NICU.
Meredith shares her journey, from finding her calling in the challenging environment of the NICU, to becoming an essential support system for families and their newborns in critical care.
We take an in-depth look at the nuances of working in the NICU, and Meredith shines a light on the strategies she uses to support babies effectively - like containment, positive touch, positioning and sound control - to reduce overstimulation. But there's more than just hands-on baby care. We also discuss the administrative complexities of the NICU and skills and traits important to hone when working in this routine yet ever-changing environment.
Meredith shares her dreams of expanding into maternal fetal medicine. Whether it's managing donations, mentoring interns, or forming deep connections with families, Meredith’s experiences are filled with inspiring moments.
Join us on this emotional ride with Meredith Murray, and get moved by her passion and dedication to the NICU.
