On the positive side if you make friends with the nurse and respect her input and information you will be able to accomplish alot.  Hilda Pressman

    My husband occ. works on the NICU (pharmacist)  at another hospital, and 
he said NICU nurses can tend to be a territorial and wary breed when looking 
out for their little patients.


I would say this observation is right on target in many places.  Only after 
the dysphagia clinician can prove his/her worth to the NICU staff can 
inroads be made.  That can take quite awhile!
