COVID-19 and Pregnancy - An Update for our Patients
We would like to take this opportunity to update you about your maternity care during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, and assure you that our dedicated team of expert nurses, physicians and midwives are committed to providing safe and effective care to every patient who walks through our doors.
Choosing a hospital that can meet the needs of you and your baby is one of the first decisions you will make as a new parent.
At MountainView Hospital, we offer a Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) to serve critically ill babies and premature infants who require medical or surgical intervention. Our NICU specialists includes board-certified neonatologists, specially trained NICU nurses and an extensive care team whose focus is caring for your baby around the clock.
For more information about our NICU services, call (702) 962-5021.
Premature baby care
Our neonatal doctors understand that having a premature baby (preemie) in the NICU can be scary. So at MountainView, our neonatologists prepare for a range of conditions and treatments focused on preemies born at any gestational age.
One of the effects of premature birth is underdeveloped body organs. Other babies may need additional medical support after being born. Our NICU doctors overcome developmental and support issues with special, state-of-the-art equipment and procedures and involve medical specialists in caring for your little one.
