Disclosure: I do not have any relevant financial / non-financial relationships with any proprietary interests.
I am Dr. Alecia Karr, DNP, APRN, CPNP-AC and I am a doctorally-prepared nurse practitioner with an acute care pediatric certification. I currently work as a neonatal nurse practitioner for Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus, Ohio. I work in a level IV NICU and I have been a nurse practitioner with Nationwide Children's Hospital since August 2020. I currently specialize in and primarily work on a unit dedicated to neonates with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Before moving to Columbus, I lived in Elizabethtown, Kentucky and worked for a delivery hospital and level II NICU as a bedside RN and charge nurse. I received my DNP at the University of Kentucky in 2020, my BSN at Arkansas State University in 2015, and I obtained a BS in Psychology at the University of Louisville in 2012. I have an interest in neonatal abstienence syndrome (NAS) and am currently working on research that specifically impacts infants with BPD.
