Mobile NICUs
By ambulance, helicopter, and plane, Critical Care Transport teams (mobile NICUs) can be lifesaving for preemies and pregnant mothers.
Team Preemie has expanded Preemie Packet distribution to include mobile NICUs, such as those at Prisma Health and the Cub Crew at USA Health.
Examples of how mobile NICUs help:
Transport a preemie to a hospital with a NICU
Transport a preemie to a NICU with a higher level of care
Transport a preemie from hard-to-reach locations
Transport requiring NICU-level monitoring
Transport for maternal medical emergencies
