Infants born prematurely or with medical problems have immediate access to NICU services at Madison Memorial Hospital. Our level 2B Neonatal Intensive Care Unit provides care for preterm or sick infants from 32 weeks gestation to term (40 weeks).
We specialize in late preterm infants (34-37 weeks gestation). Our state-of-the-art 14 bed NICU is staffed with Neonatologists, NICU-trained Pediatricians, NICU-trained nurses, respiratory therapists, occupational therapists, and social workers. The design of our unit allows families to nurture their babies in a private, comfortable, and nurturing environment.
Features of the NICU include:
- Spacious, private cubicles with comfortable chairs for the family
- “Giraffe beds” or specialized beds for a warm quiet environment for baby
- Advanced lighting and noise control technology for developmental care
- The latest technology in beds and monitors for treating sick or preterm infants
