Abstract
Neonatal care is a highly complex specialized area in medicine and nursing; however, in many countries, there is no specialized neonatal nursing organization. Evidence is growing to support neonatal nursing as specialization globally, yet there are still some issues to be considered-the benefits and drawbacks of having specialized associations. This column “Point-Counter Point” is meant to evoke more questions than answers, to debate topics from both sides-not suggesting one is right, the other wrong. We invite your thoughts.
