Our remodeled unit offers advanced respiratory support for babies with breathing difficulties, including high frequency ventilation and inhaled nitric oxide. We provide cardiac and respiratory monitoring equipment as well as laboratory and imaging facilities such as X-ray, CT, and MRI. We have a Lactation Consultant and an Occupational Therapist who work with families for success in their infant's growth and development. We also have a social worker whose sole responsibility is to help our NICU families, and we provide pastoral care by request. Read more about our Services and Facilities.
