NEONATAL UNIT
The Chelsea & Westminster Hospital runs as a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).  NICUs are sited alongside specialist obstetric and feto-maternal medicine services, and provide the whole range of medical neonatal care for their local population, along with additional care for babies and their families referred from the neonatal network.

The NICU is in high demand and has 43 cots providing Intensive Care, High Dependency and Special Care facilities. The Unit looks after approximately 500 babies a year, many born in this hospital and others brought here from all over London and the South East of England.

The Unit is also a specialist referral centre for Neonatal Surgery. It is one of the 2 lead perinatal centres within the North West London Perinatal Network.

We have a compliment of 7 Neonatologists working on the Unit, together with an academic Neonatologist.  We work closely with our team of Paediatric Surgeons and Gastroenterologists to provide a complete perinatal service.  We provide a neonatal community follow up service in partnership with the Paediatric Community Nursing Teams.

Our strong links with the Maternity Service reflect our aim to ensure that mothers and babies are looked after together wherever possible.
