Single-Family Rooms
At Woman’s, we believe in family-centered care. That’s why our 84-bed NICU is designed to focus on intensive care while encouraging family bonding.
The NICU includes:
- 77 single-family rooms, seven of which can accommodate families with twins and one for triplets
- Six other rooms designed for our longer-term infants with developmental needs
The single-family rooms allow our medical staff to focus on your baby’s specific needs, while providing you personal space to bond with your new baby. This private time as a family is essential to the healing process and is an important step towards taking baby home.
Woman’s Single-Family NICU Rooms
Woman’s Hospital neonatologist Dr. Steven Spedale discusses the single-family patient rooms inside Woman’s NICU and why they can better facilitate an infant’s growth and development.
A Healing Environment
Having a baby stay in the NICU can be difficult. We created our "under-the-sea" theme in the NICU to help reduce stress for both baby and family.
The starfish, fish, turtle, seahorse, dolphin and whale "pods" help parents easily navigate the large space and while creating a cheery but calming nursery-like environment.
