Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)

Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)

Welcome to Garnet Health Medical Center's Level II Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, or more commonly known as the NICU. The birth of your baby is a special time for your family and we realize it may also be a stressful time.

We would like to take this opportunity to introduce ourselves and explain some of the unit procedures. Your baby has been admitted to the NICU because he or she requires specialized care. This may have been unsuspected. Please be assured that our team of specialists have years of experience in caring for and treating the tiniest of patients.

We are here to help, and look forward to caring for you and your baby.

Our 10-bed, Level II Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) is located at the Rowley Family Birthing Center on the 6th floor and will complement current perinatal services. Full-time neonatologists, affiliated with Maria Fareri Children's Hospital at Westchester Medical Center, will care for your premature and sick infants requiring specialty care in our NICU.

We provide a full array of specialized equipment and delivery room coverage along with all required support services around the clock. We are prepared to serve the needs of our rapidly growing population and demand for local NICU practitioners who will provide expertise and support to you and your infant.

Made possible by a gift from Hailey's Hope Foundation, we are proud to offer NICU families a resource room. This room is an exclusive area that provides NICU families a quiet and comfortable space to support you during your visit as you participate in your infant's care.
