Neonatal Clinical Nurse Educator
Grady Memorial Hospital
Jessi Barnes is a clinical nurse educator with a passion for the neonatal patient population. Her nursing practice consists of high-risk perinatal care, neonatal intensive care, and a few years in nursing informatics just to shake things up. Her passion for trauma-informed family integrated care fuels her professional work. In August 2022, Jessi experienced the NICU firsthand when her daughter was born at 27 weeks 5 days after a home placental abruption. Experiencing the environment she knows and loves from the “other side” was exhausting, traumatic, but most of all, hopeful. She hopes through sharing her family’s experiences she can positively impact the experience of others.
Jessi holds a Master of Science in nursing education and certifications in high-risk neonatal nursing, nursing professional development, and the care of the extremely low birth weight infant. She is a graduate of the Trauma Informed Professional certificate program and a Community Resiliency Model Teacher. She is also a contributing member of the Family Centered Care Taskforce's newsletter committee.
