Isolation NICU: Shielding Your Precious Newborn

We understand that the arrival of a premature baby can bring a mix of joy and anxiety. At Borneo Hospital, we’re committed to providing the highest level of care and protection for your little one. Our Isolation NICU offers a specialised environment where premature and vulnerable newborns can receive intensive care while minimising the risk of infection and complications.

What is an Isolation NICU?

An Isolation NICU is a dedicated unit within the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) that provides a controlled and secluded environment for babies who are particularly susceptible to infections. These babies may include:

  • Premature babies: Born before 37 weeks of gestation, their immune systems are still developing, making them more vulnerable to infections.
  • Babies with low birth weight: Weighing less than 2.5 kilograms at birth, these babies may have difficulty fighting off infections.
  • Babies with compromised immune systems: This may include babies with congenital conditions or those undergoing certain treatments that weaken their immune system.

The Importance of an Isolation NICU

  • Infection Prevention: The primary goal of an isolation NICU is to reduce the risk of infection, which can be life-threatening for vulnerable newborns.
  • Specialised Care: Our Isolation NICU is staffed by a team of highly trained neonatologists, nurses, and respiratory therapists who specialise in caring for premature and critically ill babies.
  • Advanced Technology: We utilise state-of-the-art equipment and monitoring systems to provide the most advanced care for your baby.
  • Family-Centred Care: We understand that your presence is crucial for your baby’s well-being. We encourage you to be involved in your baby’s care as much as possible while maintaining strict hygiene protocols.
