The North – Maple Grove Hospital Advantage
- As a Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), we provide critical care for extremely premature to full-term babies.
- Once your baby is born, neonatologists and neonatal nurse practitioners are at your bedside, answering all the questions you have, and are available for consult—daily if need be—to talk to families about tests, results, and experiences.
- Critically ill babies have extensively trained nurses at their bedside at all times.
- Our highly experienced, interdisciplinary staff invites you to be a part of your child’s care every single day. We welcome you to our daily team rounds so you can be involved in each step of the care plan.
- Through our NICview technology, families can see their baby through a live-stream camera at any time during the day. This technology is great for checking in on your new bundle of joy when you’re not able to make it to the hospital.
- Our comprehensive and extensively trained NICU transport team is available by ambulance and air to transfer patients to our level III NICU at North – Maple Grove Hospital from anywhere throughout Minnesota and surrounding states.
- We participate in the Beads of Courage program, which is a worldwide arts-in-medicine program designed to help people commemorate health milestones or tell their stories.
Care Philosophies
Our team of highly experienced Neonatal Intensive Care Unit specialists is dedicated to the care of our tiniest patients. Our interdisciplinary approach means that your little one gets a comprehensive team and all its experience: Neonatologists, neonatal nurse practitioners, neonatal nurses, lactation consultants, dietitians, social workers, chaplains, and respiratory, speech, physical, and occupational therapists all available to consult, assist, and empower you to make the best choices for your family.
We use the most forward-thinking technology, including brain-wave monitoring, respiratory support, and total body cooling when needed, to take care of very sick babies. From breathing support and learning to eat to full-term babies in need of infection monitoring, we support every baby’s individual medical needs while including the entire family in the care plan and as much of the daily caretaking as possible.
Breastfeeding Support
Even if your baby may not be able to latch and breastfeed right away, we encourage pumping to help deliver needed antibodies and immunities to your child through breastmilk if breastfeeding is part of your feeding plan. We also offer breast pumps and private rooms to mothers if needed so they may pump regularly to encourage milk production. Our team can feed breastmilk to your baby even if he or she is not ready to breastfeed yet.
Lactation consultants are available for breastfeeding support, as is screened, pasteurized donor breastmilk for mothers who have delayed milk production and prefer it over formula.
Lodging and Accommodations
We make every effort for you to spend as much time with your baby as you can. We offer bay–style units and then private rooms with pull-out couches as your baby gets closer to discharge, giving you the option to room-in. Our hospital also has a café and room service available for dining, plus a spot where you can store homemade food.

Safety and Security
You can rest assured your baby is always safe and secure in our NICU. Nurses monitor your baby’s health, and our NICU is a secure, locked unit. Our visiting policy may be stricter than the rest of the hospital. We do this to minimize spreading germs and to keep NICU babies safe.
Visitors must:
- Utilize the door buzzer to gain access to the NICU.
- Check in at front desk or nurse’s station prior to proceeding to the patient bedside/ private room.
If the visitor is not an ID band holder, staff must verify that a Primary ID band holder is present before allowing the visitor access to the patient.
Interpreter Services
We offer support options for deaf, hard of hearing, language assistance and translation services. These services are all free of charge and available 24 hours a day, seven days a week for patients.
NICU Family Support
We have a NICU Care/Discharge Coordinator to work with families providing education and support throughout the NICU stay, as well as assist in coordinating any follow-up appointments and services needed upon discharge. Our Chaplain is an additional resource for support throughout the NICU stay. We have social workers assigned to each patient who can also help guide you through financial and community resources if needed.
