What is transitional care of a newborn?

Neonatal Transitional Care Unit (NTCU) is totally different from NICU. This is an area in maternity ward/maternity hospitals usually on or near postnatal ward, where neonates who need a little more nursing care and monitoring can stay with their mothers, rather than going to NICU.

How long do babies stay in transitional care?

Most babies will remain an inpatient on the Transitional Care Unit between 5 14 days. However because the length of stay depends on your babys progress, this stay may be shorter or longer.

What is neonatal transitional care?

Transitional care is when you are still with your baby and caring for them while they receive some extra observations or treatments. This will take place either on the postnatal ward or in a parent bay in the neonatal unit. This allows us to give them the extra care they need whilst you remain together.

What is a neonatal transfusion?

The word neonatal means newborn, or the first 28 days of life. Over 90,000 babies are born premature or sick and in need of neonatal care in the UK each year. We know that having a baby in neonatal care is likely to bring up a whole range of emotions, and some of these can be hard to face.

How should neonates be transported?

Ground Transport: The most common method, ground transport uses ambulances equipped with state-of-the-art neonatal intensive care units. These vehicles are designed to tackle varying road conditions and ensure the babys stability throughout the journey. Air Transport: This includes helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft.
