a few words about the department
Neonatal Department provides comprehensive care for both physiologically normal and premature newborns born from the 32nd week of pregnancy. The goal of our team is to enable the earliest possible return of the whole family home, usually within 48 hours after birth. At the parents' request and in agreement with the pediatrician, discharge is possible even earlier. All newborns are continuously monitored during hospitalization using a breathing monitor. The department is equipped with modern diagnostic methods directly at the child's bedside (e.g., ultrasound, X-ray) and collaborates with a range of specialized specialists. The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit also provides care for slightly and moderately premature newborns, including respiratory support and intravenous nutrition. Since 2021, the department has held the status of Perinatal Center for Intermediate Care and is among 12 facilities in the Czech Republic that provide care for both mother and child from the 32nd week of pregnancy.
