NICU Bigelow-12 is a Primary Care Nursing Unit and a Primary Nurse will be available for each patient his or her family. The primary nurse and associate nurses work together to help coordinate the patients plan of care during his or her stay in our unit. This offers patients and families continuity of care. It is our hope that this information will help answer any questions you have while your family member is a patient in this unit.
All visitors stop and press the intercom outside the unit.
You must make a request to see a patient and wait for a response before entering the unit. Patient Visitors are limited to immediate family and any significant others. No Children under age 14 are allowed to visit. This is a list of family members who will be in to visit a patient. We would find it helpful if you fill out the attached card with this information.
