The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit

Created in 1972, the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) of the San Gerardo hospital is one of the first in Italy and is equipped to care newborns that are dealing with premature birth and other neonatal critical pathologies.
The NICU management is characterized by a strong push towards a family-centered care approach, focused on ensuring an immediate and continuous interaction between the family and the newborn, as part of the care practice.
The NICU structure evolved in 2017, when open wards were replaced by single-family-rooms, becoming the first one in Italy implementing this innovative care organization entirely focused on the family-centered care approach.
