Introduction  \nThe College of Nurses of Ontario (CNO) defines competency as the knowledge, skill, ability and judgment required for safe and ethical nursing practice (College of Nurses of Ontario) . Competencies may involve skills, which are not only tasks, but are behavioural actions that require the Registered Nurse to use depth and breadth of knowledge, skill and judgment, which allows them to safely practice and competently adapt to changes in the health care environment, ensuring high quality and safe care (Petty, 2014; Mirlashari J, 2016) .  \nThis Neonatal Nursing Technical Skills Checklist is a compendium document to the Practice Standards for Neonatal Nursing Practice in Ontario (2021) . The checklist is to be used in conjunction with the Standards as well as any relevant hospital policies arising within the site’s region, procedures and guidelines. This skills checklist includes suggested neonatal nursing skills that can guide the skill development of individuals who work in Level 2 Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs) , Level 3 NICUs as well as novice NICU nurses who are completing their orientation/preceptorship and who are expected to demonstrate competence in all relevant Level 2 and/or Level 3 skills by its completion.  \nThis skills checklist is not exhaustive, instead it is intended to be resource that can be modified to meet the needs of each NICU environment.  \n2.
