Newborn Intensive Care Unit (NICU)

Sometimes infants require specialized care due to medical conditions, including premature delivery. Our neonatologists (physicians who specialize in treating infants) and specially trained nurses are available to care for infants born prematurely or with medical conditions requiring specialized care.

Our Newborn Intensive Care Unit, conveniently located within the Women's Pavilion, is equipped with the latest medical technology to assist physicians and nurses in the care of infants. Respiratory therapists, diagnostic imaging technicians, dietitians, social workers, and other healthcare professionals work with our physicians and nurses to provide the best care possible. Our team of healthcare professionals is led by Dr. Richard Meidell, Medical Director of the Newborn Intensive Care Unit.
