    This just motivated me to become a nurse. I feel like I have finally found the perfect match for what I want in life. I want to help babies and their families, and a neonatal nurse sounds amazing! 🙂 Thank you, what an awesome video!!!

    That’s why Grey’s Anatomy is all a lie. The doctors transport the patients? The doctors check the patient’s vital signs? The doctors at the bedside watching over the babies? It’s all a lie because it is the NURSES who do it. The doctor speaking in this video is so honest I admire it.

      Umm Grey’s Anatomy is a TV show not a documentary. Why would anyone want it to be too realistic? If that was the case then, instead of watching TV, we could just take a stroll through the local hospitals and call it a day.

    In a Chicago hospital during 1991. I was one of those babies fight of life, born at 23 weeks. I was in the hospital total five months. I just wanted to leave a comment saying, they are doing amazing work.

    My baby was born at 26 weeks and he is almost coming home! He’s currently 37 weeks and I couldn’t be happier. Because of the experience I’m going through I would LOVE to be a NICU nurse to help others. I appreciate the work of all nurses and doctors especially those involved in the NICU because you have no idea what is preemie baby moms emotionally go through. I’m forever grateful. May God bless all the nurses and doctors and this new preemie mommy appreciates your work!!!

      You might not write back, or this might not even be your account anymore but i really hope it is, i’m 13 years old now and i hope to be a NICU nurse at Texas Children’s Hospital. Crazy. But i really hope you see this and I really hope you chose to follow your dream!

      Hey, this comment is five years old! If I’m not wrong, you must be either 18 or close to turning 18. I hope you still want to fulfill your dream! If not, that’s okay, just the fact that you considered it at a time is absolutely wonderful. Good on you!

    We love Dr. Welty, he saved my daughter’s life. If it hadn’t been for him our life would be vastly different right now. Texas Children’s Hospital is lucky to have him on staff.

    I am a young teen and would LOVE to be a neonatal nurse when I am older! And I think it is very nice that they are not only giving the doctors recognition, but the nurses too! I would love to work at a hospital like this, maybe not this exact hospital because I would like to stay close to home, but I think this is a wonderful hospital facility!

    God bless all NICU staff! As a mother to 3 preemies and 2 of them had NICU stays, I can say I couldn’t have gotten thru those months w/o them! Those were the hardest months and the hardest was leaving the hospital w/o my babies! So u have no choice but to trust the staff with your precious children!

    I’ve said so often that nurses don’t get nearly enough credit for the work they do. It was so refreshing to see that things are changing, even if it’s just one hospital at a time….they need recognition! (I’m not a nurse, by the way….but I’ve been a patient far too many times.)??‍⚕️??‍⚕️?
