New NICU unit cares for the smallest of preemies
Located within our level IV Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), our new small baby unit — supported through a planned gift from local residents Victor and Phela Vesci through the Vesci Family Trust — is specifically equipped for babies who are born less than 27 weeks gestation or weigh less than 2.2 pounds. The unit provides care for up to six babies at one time, and includes dedicated equipment such as special breathing machines and beds to create a stable thermal microenvironment.
