NICU RNs attend high-risk deliveries offering neonatal resuscitation for infants with extreme prematurity and other birth complications. Nurses care for infants born with congenital defects, surgical needs, respiratory distress, neurological disorders, and other diagnoses with an emphasis on relationship-based care where families are true care partners.

Using cutting edge technology and a focus on evidence-based practice, the NICU at UVA Childrens is a regional transfer center serving patients from all over the Commonwealth. We offer advanced therapies such Extra Corporeal Membrane Oxygenation and hypothermia treatment. Patients receive various modes of monitoring and support, including respiratory, hemodynamic, and thermoregulation. Nurse ratios are typically 1:2 in the ICU and 1:3 in the ICN.
