Kathie-DunnKathie Dunn RN, MSN, CCRN

Director of Clinical Services REACH Air Medical Services

Neonatal & Pediatric Clinical Manager REACH Air Medical Services

As REACH’s Neonatal/Pediatric Clinical Manager, Kathie has significant responsibilities. “I am involved with all Neonatal/Pediatric training at all the bases but only with the support of the Clinical Team and MCL’s is this accomplished,” she says. “Ongoing training for neonatal teams is also my responsibility, I create protocols and with my teams, address protocols that need amending.”

Kathie has spent decades working with the tiniest of patients. “They are so redeeming, so forgiving, so resilient,” she says. “Neonates do speak a language, but they are not little pediatric patients, and they don’t communicate or behave like adults. Adults give you lots of signs and signals, they throw lots of flags. A neonate may only throw one flag, and it may be vague, it may be fleeting.  And neonates don’t give you a lot of time,” she emphasizes, “they need a really quick response. So you can’t be thinking about the process; it has to become second nature. And that,” she states, “is why we do such arduous training".
