Why Are Visitor Restrictions Important in Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs)?
Visitor restrictions are crucial in NICUs to protect vulnerable newborns from potential infections. Newborns, especially those with neonatal disorders such as premature birth or congenital anomalies, have underdeveloped immune systems. Limiting the number of visitors reduces the risk of exposure to pathogens, ensuring a safer environment for the infants.
