Within the Family Birthplace, the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) houses BryanLGH’s tiniest patients, some who will be here only a day or two and others who will spend several months getting ready to go out into the world.
The culture of the unit is that of involving families in the care of their baby. Families are part of the team that consists of neonatologists, neonatal nurse practitioners, NICU nurses, speech, occupational, physical and respiratory therapists, pharmacists, dietitians, social workers and lactation specialists.
A family-centered environment – with private rooms, sleeping couches, refrigerators, laundry and shower facilities, food delivery, self-serve nutrition centers and family lounges – helps families feel at home while allowing them not only to be involved in their baby's care, but also to stay close while still maintaining some sense of daily life and family relationships.
Neonatal Intensive Care Unit is located on the third floor of the Family Birthplace.
