NICU

The neonatal intensive care unit provides critical care to newborns who are ill or premature. Many factors may lead to a newborn being admitted to the NICU, including low birth weight or complications during delivery. The NICU staff works closely with parents to develop a treatment plan for their newborn.

Level II Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) in Trinity, Florida

At HCA Florida Trinity Hospital, we know that babies who are born prematurely or with serious medical conditions need advanced care.

That's why the neonatal specialists at our Level II NICU offer diagnostics, treatments and family-centered care to our youngest patients in need. Our NICU team of neonatal doctors and nurses will be there for your baby to make sure they receive the advanced care they need in a healing environment.

Secure NICU live video streaming

Our live streaming is only accessible to specified users with passwords issued by our NICU.
