Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU)
St. Luke's Pediatric Intensive Care Unit provides the highest level of care for critically ill children. Pediatric physician specialists work with specially trained registered nurses and respiratory therapists to address each child’s critical needs. Children of all ages—infant through adolescent—come to our unit for care of severe illness or injury and recovery from complex surgery. Like everywhere else in our Children’s Hospital, the needs of children and families are nurtured by the additional care of chaplains, social workers, and child life specialists.
Our newly expanded Pediatric Intensive Care Unit includes 12 rooms with a total of 13 beds, and 6 rooms designed to accommodate the special inpatient needs of children with cancer.
