GOLD Neonatal Conference News
We're thrilled to bring you our second annual GOLD Neonatal online conference! GOLD Learning is your source for accessible up-to-date education in the field of maternal and child health. Now, our Neonatal conference brings affordable, convenient, and informative education to your fingertips. Registration is now open for this year's event, with up to 18.5 hours of accredited education available.
At last year's inaugural event, we were joined by outstanding speakers and enthusiastic delegates. Attendees enjoyed Keynote Speakers Dr. Nils Bergman and Dr. Michael Narvey as well as our main conference speakers who shared insights and information sought after by today's neonatal healthcare providers.
Early bird registration for this year's event runs from April 3 until May 23. Regular registration is open until July 25. Group and student discounts are also available. Delegates have 24/7 access to presentation recordings until August 3, with GOLD Annual Members enjoying three weeks of additional viewing time.
Our conference kicks off on June 4 with our Opening Keynote speaker Jodi Dolezel, BSN, RNC-NICU. Through her work in the NICU and directly with parents, Jodi has developed unique insights into the NICU experience. Her presentation "The Power of Storytelling - The Human Experience in the Neonatal Intensive Care" will offer the opportunity to better understand how storytelling can be used as a powerful tool in connecting families and healthcare providers.
Our live presentation days run between June 4 and June 18. Lectures are scheduled throughout various time slots to accommodate our international audience. In addition to being available live, all presentations are recorded and uploaded to the delegate area of the website.
To wrap up the live presentations, we'll hear our Closing Keynote presentation from Mary Coughlin McNeil, MS, NNP, RNC-E on June 18. In "Touch a Life, Impact a Lifetime: The Therapeutic Value of YOU", attendees will learn about the direct link between early life experiences and mental health outcomes. Mary is a leader in neonatal nursing who has over 35 years of experience in nursing. In this presentation, she will help us better understand the impact of touch on neurodevelopmental and psycho-socio-emotional outcomes as well as the biological underpinnings of the therapeutic, healing presence.
Delegates at this year's conference will have the opportunity to enjoy exclusive add-on packages. The Breastfeeding in the NICU and the Mental Health in the NICU lecture packs both offer an excellent opportunity to delve deeper into these key areas of neonatal health. These add-on packages are available as recordings throughout the conference period and each include 4 hours of education.
GOLD Neonatal offers plenty of ways for our delegates to connect and share with one another. Delegates enjoy our online forums where they can keep the conversations going and ask questions of our speakers. In our GOLD Neonatal Conference Discussion Facebook group delegates find further opportunities to chat, share insights, post conference selfies, and more.
We look forward to seeing you at GOLD Neonatal 2018 and sharing all that this year's event has to offer!
