• The nursery staff caring for your baby is registered nurses specially trained in Level II Care, neonatal nurse practitioners, pediatric hospitalist and primary care providers.
• Babies in a Level II Nursery may need monitoring for apnea, IV’s or special medications, an incubator or other assistance to maintain their body temperature or feeding assistance.
• Level II Staff works closely with families teaching them about any special procedure or medication your baby may need at home.
• Most babies born several weeks early will spend some time in a Level II Nursery for observation.
