The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital of New York specializes in providing high quality care for sick and premature newborns. We realize that the hospitalization of a newborn child is a stressful experience. With this in mind, we are dedicated to supporting you through your experience. Remember, we do not just care for your baby---we are committed to caring for you and your family.

Morgan Stanely Children's Hospital of New York is the hub of the Regional Perinatal Network, which links hospitals throughout the tri-state area. Through this network, high-risk infants are transported to our neonatal intensive care unit by helicopter or mobile intensive care.

The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Morgan Stanely Children's Hospital of New York is noted for its contributions to the field of neonatology. Early neonatologists, perinatologists, and obstetricians collaborated in research, which shaped the field of neonatal care as we know it; including development of the APGAR score and use of Nasal Prong CPAP. Please visit the divisional website for a complete overview of the faculty, research, educational programs, schedule, parent information, and current events within Neonatology/Perinatology.
