INTENSIVE CARE UNITS

Pioneers Memorial Hospital has both an adult ICU and a level 2 neonatal ICU. A multidisciplinary approach by a specialized, highly trained team is used in both areas.

Intensive Care Unit (ICU)
An eight-bed unit serves medical and surgical patients with acute conditions that require critical care and monitoring.

Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)
This level 2 unit has four beds.

Children under sixteen years old are normally not permitted to visit patients in ICU, but special arrangements can be made depending on the situation. In general, the duration of the visit is limited to fifteen minutes every two hours. Anyone with a cold or cough should not visit any patient.

Visiting hours for the NICU are determined by the needs of the baby and the family. There can be short visits at any time of the day or night. Visitors, excluding parents, are limited to ten minutes. Visitors must be accompanied by a parent or have written permission from the parents to visit the baby alone.

Visitors with sore throats, diarrhea, fever, cold symptoms, or exposure to contagious disease within the preceding two weeks will be denied access to the NICU.
