NICU - Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
NICU - Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
We understand that many parents feel anxious when their baby is admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Initially, it may feel unsettling or even scary. However, understanding you're the most important health care team member is essential to your baby’s health. Rest assured, our team of physicians, nurses and other caregivers in the NICU at The Women’s Hospital at Renaissance do their best to provide emotional support for you while caring for your infant’s medical needs.
While we pride ourselves in providing exceptional health care, we invite you to ask questions, because we understand that it's important you understand your child's medical condition. The NICU staff is prepared to answer your questions. Our team consists of health care professionals who are here to help your baby and support you. You're an essential part of your baby’s care and we encourage you to visit as often as possible to hold, touch, talk to and take care of your baby as his or her condition allows.
With equipment designed for infants and a hospital staff that has professional training in newborn care, the NICU at The Women’s Hospital at Renaissance was created for sick newborns that need specialized treatment. Our NICU offers two levels of care: intensive care (Level III) and intermediate care (Level II), both designed to assist with your baby’s healthcare treatment and development. Neonatologists diagnose and treat medical conditions in newborns, coordinate the medical care and management of premature and critically ill infants and provide care to newborns during complicated deliveries. They have the training to treat even the smallest infants. To see our list of specialty physicians,
