Parents and Families
Welcome to the Parents’ and Families’ Section
Here you will find information and resources to support you and your family through your neonatal journey. We recognise that this may be a time of mixed emotions for you, and our team is here to help make sure you feel as supported as possible throughout your time on the unit.
Each year over 8,000 babies are admitted to one of the twenty-two neonatal units within the NWNODN. The NWNODN includes two neonatal surgical centres and two cardiac centres, and all units are served by a dedicated 24/7 neonatal transport team –
Our aim is to ensure your baby receives the right level of care, in the right place and as close to home as possible.
