The new vehicle will have adequate space for the transport and treatment of twins or a baby and mother all in same ambulance. It will also have space to safely transport up to four crew members providing specialized care as well as three family members.

Neonatal Intensive Care Unit – $2 million, 2015-2018
About 300 babies each year require advanced medical treatment in Atrium Health Floyd Medical Center’s Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).

Providing an environment where these newborns can heal while bonding with their families helps them grow, gain weight, improve and thrive. Campaign funds were used to renovate the Atrium Health Floyd Medical Center NICU to provide optimal development of premature infants, family-centered care, improved privacy and leading-edge equipment.
