NICU Bridge to Home

At Monroe Carell, we specialize in providing the best neonatal intensive care. If your baby qualifies, we may offer you our NICU Bridge to Home monitoring program. You'll be able to take your baby home where our team will be able to provide the care you need through our remote monitoring platform and telehealth appointments.

We will explain how this works if you choose to participate. Our team will enroll you in the NICU Bridge to Home program before your discharge and give you all the information you need to continue your baby's care at home.

Your baby will receive the care that is right for them, just like they would at Monroe Carell.  You'll enjoy the convenience of being in your own home and on your schedule while still receiving expert neonatal advice and monitoring.
