Newborns move to Woman-Mother-Child center: sick infants to be kept with their mothers during treatment and recovery
Veldhoven, the Netherlands – Maxima Medical Center (Veldhoven, The Netherlands) and Royal Philips Electronics today announced that a major milestone has been reached in the realization of a unique new mother and child care concept. Premature babies currently receiving care at the medical center’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) will from today be moved to new accommodation in the Woman-Mother-Child center in the Maxima Medical Center in Veldhoven.
Relocation of these very young, very fragile, babies is newsworthy in itself. But what makes it even more special is that from now on, the treatment of these premature babies and their recovering mothers will be fully integrated. It will now be possible to keep mothers and their newborn babies together for treatment and nursing care. Up until now, mothers have tended to stay on the obstetric ward and their babies were sent to a pediatric ward. This new concept of fully integrated mother and child care is one of the first in Europe and is the result of a close collaboration between the hospital and Philips.
