NRP 8th Edition Provider Curriculum (Essentials and Advanced)
This section describes the Instructor-led (traditional) format NRP course. Another option for 8th edition NRP is RQI® for NRP®, which is a quality improvement program for institutions. The program allows learners to complete NRP Essentials via a self-directed curriculum with quarterly activities to reinforce and master key NRP knowledge and NRP Essentials skills at a simulation station. RQI for NRP is not required for 8th edition NRP training for those taking the Instructor-led course option. For more information on RQI for NRP, visit https://rqipartners.com/programs/nrp/.
Essentials or Advanced
For the 8th edition of NRP there are two different types of Provider: Essentials and Advanced. NRP Essentials covers lessons 1 through 4 of the Textbook of Neonatal Resuscitation, 8th Edition. Anyone who is involved in the care of a newborn should take NRP Essentials. NRP Advanced covers lessons 1 through 11 of the textbook. It is appropriate for those who attend births and are responsible for anticipated resuscitation of a newborn with known risk factors, and for those who participate in neonatal resuscitation beyond positive-pressure ventilation.
Each organization will determine its own policy for who should attain NRP Essentials or NRP Advanced provider status. If a healthcare professional is unsure about which NRP level to take, they should probably take NRP Advanced and should check with their institution, if applicable.
Anyone wishing to become an NRP Instructor Candidate must have a current NRP 7th edition Provider card or a current NRP 8th Edition Advanced provider card.
