Level III NICU with Private Suites
University Health’s state-of-the art level III NICU features large, private suites for parents and their baby or babies (special suites available for twins or triplets) to experience their first moments together in without distraction. The NICU is well equipped to offer specialized care to your baby should any complications arise.
When you are ready to go home, take advantage of the “family room” for a trial overnight stay to see how you, your partner and your little one(s) do on your own. The NICU staff is just a call away should you need assistance.
Immediate Access to Children’s Mercy Level IV NICU via the Bridge of Hope
Should your baby need more advanced care, patients in the High-Risk Pregnancy Center have immediate access to the Level IV neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) at Children’s Mercy Hospital via a footbridge between the two hospitals. A Level IV NICU offers the highest level of care available for premature and critically ill newborns.
This seamless partnership between our facility and Children’s Mercy Hospital creates an unparalleled access to critical care when every second matters. University Health is the only maternity hospital in the Kansas City metro area that has this physical connection, so you have the peace of mind that your baby is close and getting the best care they need.
