NANN published earlier editions as Neonatal Transports: Guidelines for Nursing Practice in 1994, 1998, and 2010 in response to its members’ recognition that care could be improved for critically ill newborns through the implementation of endorsed practice standards developed by nursing experts involved in neonatal transport. Although generic in approach, these best practice guidelines can be applied to institutional requirements for developing and maintaining high-quality transport teams. The guidelines are intended to be used as a general template for establishing consistency in practices that ensure the safety of patients and transport team members. This new fourth edition includes areas not addressed in previous versions e.g., the historical evolution and necessity of transport, accreditation processes, levels of perinatal care, various types of transports, digital platforms for documentation, and the incorporation of outcome metrics into a transport program.
