The Division of Neonatology provides service
through the newborn intensive care unit, a 50-bed tertiary care
service for critically ill newborns including extracorporeal
membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and high frequency
ventilation. The neonatal transport team moves high-risk
neonates between statewide referral hospitals and the newborn
intensive care unit. The Neonatology Developmental Care
Program provides an environmental, family-centered approach to
the care of infants born at risk, from NICU admission through
discharge into the community. The Neonatal Outreach
Education Program provides on-going educational and training
needs of hospitals, and physicians, nurses and other allied
health professionals. Follow-up programs are available for
infants at high-risk for physical and developmental disabilities.
