Family Centered Care is about keeping the patient and caregiver(s) central in decision-making. Advantages for families include:

• Family is the focus
• Parents and Caregivers have the opportunity to advocate for their child
• Parents and Caregivers have the opportunity to ask questions and get answers
• Explain what to expect at home, answer questions
• Better collaboration between the family, the patient, nursing, and physicians 

Both the Pediatric Unit and NICU are locked units with a “buzzer” system for entry.  Guests will be asked to identify themselves and who they will be visiting prior to entering the unit.
