The relocation expanded the unit from 20 beds to 40 beds. The additional 21,000 square foot NICU was relocated adjacent to the hospital's inpatient maternity unit and newborn nursery, creating a centralized location for mother-baby care.
Additionally included were single-family rooms to enhance individual care, a large central technology hub, a dedicated "parents-only" space for overnight accommodations for families, and reduced light and sound control to create a more soothing environment for premature babies.
