About Me
Britney Cherry is a Neonatal Nurse Practitioner with WakeMed Physician Practices – Neonatology with clinical interests managing infants with an extremely low birth weight, practicing evidence-based care, and educating parents on their infant’s plan of care and journey throughout the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).
After earning her nursing degree 5 years ago, Cherry began her career working with neonatal patients, which is her true passion. While working as a staff nurse, she went back to school to earn her Masters of Science in Nursing, and became a Neonatal Nurse Practitioner. She has worked in that capacity since 2014 in both North Carolina and California. She is happy to be back home in the triangle area, working with neonatal patients at WakeMed.
My philosophy in treating this vulnerable population is to base care on each infant and family’s individual needs, while incorporating evidence-based care.
My personal interests including spending time with family, playing sports, watching movies and cooking.
