A Big Campaign for Little Miracles

Today, we share the needs of our NICU and ask you to help deliver little miracles.

Welcoming a new child into the world is both thrilling and stressful, even under the most normal of circumstances. Having a baby prematurely or with complications presents an entirely new layer of worry for parents and families.

Surrounded by the healing hands and caring hearts of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) team at SSM Health St. Mary’s Hospital - Madison, our tiniest patients and their families experience a commitment to caring that is second to none.

St. Mary’s Hospital’s Level III NICU provides advanced medical care for approximately 400 fragile newborns each year. Our specially trained team, which consists of dedicated NICU nurses, NICU respiratory therapists, neonatal nurse practitioners, and neonatologists are onsite 24/7 and are available to provide NICU support and services to rural and affiliate hospitals.
