About this Video

Mary Washington Hospital (MWH) houses the most experienced Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) in the region. With 20 private beds and a 5-bed critical care pod, the newly-expanded Joe and Mary Wilson Neonatal Intensive Care Unit is anticipated to attend to more than 350 babies annually, providing vital support to newborns as tiny as one pound. Neonatology, a specialized branch of pediatrics, focuses on the medical care of newborns with conditions such as prematurity, low birth weight, birth defects, breathing difficulties, infections, and birth-related challenges.
