We are honored to offer a Level II neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in Volusia County at AdventHealth Daytona Beach.

Our NICU is specifically designed to protect and promote the developing senses of newborns — even infants born as early as 30 weeks.

We are the only hospital in the area offering private, family-centered NICU rooms to promote privacy and rest. Each NICU room is designed with your family’s safety and comfort in mind, featuring:

  • A playroom for siblings and family

  • Mini fridge
  • Overnight accommodations
  • Showers

With a place for your family to rest and our team close by, you can be there for your baby while in NICU care. Parents can also rest assured that they have access to even more nationally recognized NICU care at the Level III NICU at AdventHealth for Children in Orlando, should the need arise.
