Special Care Baby Units (SCBU) – Waitakere and North Shore
The Neonatal Units at North Shore Hospital and Waitakere Hospital care for babies who are born early or become unwell.
While in the Neonatal Units, your baby will be cared for by a team of people who specialise in care of babies, including:
- Doctors (paediatricians)
- Nurses
- Speech Language Therapists
- Neurodevelopmental Therapists
- Dietitians
- Social Workers
- Cultural Support Workers
- Lactation Consultant
Babies who are less than 32 weeks gestation and babies who need a higher level of care because they are very sick will be transferred for care at a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) such as at Auckland City Hospital.
