PICU
The pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) utilizes specialized treatment and equipment when your child is critically ill. Physicians and nurses in the PICU are specially trained in pediatrics, so they are able to provide your child with high-quality care.

Visiting the PICU
Parents are not considered visitors in the PICU and are welcome any time. Visitors should be limited to two people at the bedside at a time. In special circumstances, additional visitors may be allowed.
We ask that visitation by other people be restricted during shift changes, between 7:30 a.m. and 7:30 p.m. This is so nurses may exchange information and reassess pediatric patients.
