Implementing guided imagery in NICUs involves several steps: - Training Staff: Healthcare providers, including nurses and therapists, need to be trained in guided imagery techniques to effectively facilitate sessions. - Creating a Conducive Environment: The environment should be calm and quiet to promote relaxation. Dim lighting and soothing background sounds can enhance the experience. - Individualized Sessions: Sessions should be tailored to the specific needs of the infant and family. This may involve creating personalized scripts that address their unique circumstances and concerns.
