As one of the only Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Units in the state of New Hampshire, the Elliot NICU has the high-tech resources and a team of neonatologists, nurses, and respiratory care therapists specializing in premature infant care to care for the tiniest of patients. Babies in our care receive close observation, attention, and intervention for their very unique needs.
More than heroic intervention at the earliest stages of life, the NICU at the Elliot offers a unique blend of technology and compassion that encourages healing and growth for babies and their parents.
The NICU Team
The NICU team is made up of many health care professionals with special training and skills. Some of these health care professionals have daily contact with your baby; others when requested. These professionals work as a team to meet your baby's special needs and to monitor his/her progress. As our NICU patients require round-the-clock readiness, the team is a significant resource – not only in terms of the breadth of specialties represented, but in terms of the number of practitioners, both in attendance and on call.
Titles of the team members represent a wide range of expertise and specific responsibilities with the NICU. It encompasses many individuals, from professionals with the highest levels of training and certification to volunteers, who are no less dedicated.
