At St. Joseph Medical Center, Neonatologists are available at a moment’s notice. Our special care nursery provides around-the-clock care to newborns with moderate concerns, like infections. We also offer a *Level III* neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) for babies with more serious issues, and our collaboration with Seattle Children’s gives babies access to nationally recognized pediatric specialists. We often identify concerns before birth, giving our team and families time to prepare. Obstetricians specializing in high-risk pregnancy perform advanced testing to assess potential issues. They coordinate additional services that enable us to start caring for babies immediately after birth if necessary. Neonatologists from Seattle Children’s are on-site in select Virginia Mason Franciscan Health NICUs and available by phone 24 hours a day. This arrangement gives babies with more serious concerns access to additional expertise without leaving our facilities.

Our offerings include large, suite-like private rooms that enable parents to be near their newborns. Watch a virtual tour! https://bit.ly/4dpERtt
