- Before starting a neonatal resuscitation, take some deep breaths to calm yourself
- Call in your friends – get a second team to manage the mother, call OB, call the NICU – all hands on deck
- Anticipate the equipment you’ll need, get it to the bedside and don’t forget to turn the warmer on
- Assign roles so everyone knows what they’re supposed to do
- Initiate transfer to a NICU as soon as possible
