The neonatal unit is the hospital department specializing in the care, monitoring, and treatment of newborns from the moment of birth, with the goal of ensuring their well-being and a smooth transition to life outside the womb.

In the neonatal unit, newborns receive continuous monitoring, medical and nursing assessments, vital sign monitoring, and prompt care whenever needed, always in accordance with established clinical protocols.

The neonatal unit is staffed by medical and nursing personnel who specialize in neonatal care and are trained to provide safe, timely care with a compassionate approach to the baby and their family.

The length of stay in the neonatal unit depends on the newborn’s clinical condition. In most cases, the stay is brief and is part of the immediate postnatal care.

Incubator care allows for the early detection of any health issues in newborns, ensures their stability, and safely supports them during their first hours of life outside the womb.
