Specialized Critical Care for Mothers & Newborns
At Red Crescent Hospital Jhang, our Gynae ICU and Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) provide specialized critical care for women and newborns who require close observation, advanced monitoring and intensive medical support. The units are supported by trained clinical teams and essential critical-care infrastructure, helping ensure timely assessment, continuous monitoring and coordinated patient management.
The Gynae ICU is designed to provide dedicated intensive care for women requiring a higher level of medical supervision. The unit includes 5 ICU beds, 2 ventilators, cardiac monitors, oxygen supply and a dedicated crash cart with defibrillator. Direct lift access further supports efficient movement of patients when required.
The NICU and Nursery provide specialized care for newborns requiring medical attention and close monitoring. The NICU is equipped with 5 stations, including advanced HFO ventilator support, while the dedicated 18-bed Nursery includes 14 incubators, 1 transport incubator and 3 infant warmers. Additional facilities include neonatal cribs, phototherapy units and resuscitation equipment to support specialized newborn care.
