NICU Growth & Development Clinic

NICU Growth & Development Clinic

The Clinic monitors the growth and development of children who required intensive care at birth. Formal developmental assessments are undertaken during the first formative years of life by a multidisciplinary team.

As part of our patients’ overall care, we want to ensure our NICU graduates who may be at risk of developmental and behavioural problems are identified early and referred to the appropriate services to help them to reach their full potential.

Families from the Centre for Newborn Care are invited to participate in the follow-up program. Information regarding the program is provided prior to the baby’s discharge/transfer. After each clinic visit families are given feedback and a formal report is sent to the child’s parents, Paediatrician, GP and any other health professionals involved in the child's care.
