What Can Parents Expect During Their Baby's NICU Stay?
Parents can expect a highly supportive and informative environment during their baby's NICU stay. The healthcare team will provide regular updates on the infant’s condition and progress. Parents are encouraged to participate in their baby's care through activities such as kangaroo care (skin-to-skin contact) and feeding, when possible. Emotional support and counseling services are often available to help parents cope with the stress and anxiety associated with having a baby in the NICU.
