NICU Nook

Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)

While one of life's greatest joys, pregnancy and childbirth alone can be challenging. When you're faced with the possibility of your newborn baby staying in the NICU, life can definitely get stressful for awhile. Words like "high risk", "sick," and "premature" were likely not part of the plan, let alone an extended stay.

Few facts about Stamford Hospitals NICU

  • Designated Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit staffed by experienced neonatologists, nurses, and pediatric specialists.
  • There is a dedicated Resource Room loaded with helpful information. It’s also a private, comfortable respite for visiting families as well as a site for weekly parent mentoring from the Tiny Miracles Foundation. Most volunteers are parents whose children were also premature infants.
  • Prior to discharge, parents are invited to spend a night in our new transition rooms to help ease the transition from NICU to home.
  •  NICU Infant Clinical Evaluation Program for “graduates” helps you and your pediatrician manage common issues like growth, nutrition, and neurodevelopmental delay.

In an effort to make NICU life more manageable, please feel free to make a selection from the gift closet. Donations are made possible by local organizations, businesses, the community and are welcome throughout the year.
