title: Pediatric/neonatal graduate nurse internship: a collaborative effort.
abstract: An internship was developed as a single unit program to prepare graduate nurses to function competently and confidently in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU). An analysis of resources, common goals, and philosophies subsequently led to the development of a collaborative internship program between the Pediatric and Neonatal Intensive Care Units. This innovative approach enhanced the internship program and met the mutual goals of each nursing unit.
