NEUROSCIENCE Irving Neurosciences Intensive Care Unit
The objectives of the NICU are to stabilize the patient, minimize complications and support the families through the critical period after admission. Intensive care monitoring includes life supporting and sustaining measures. The NICU provides care to patients of various levels of acuity of all ages, from infants to adults. Patients admitted to the NICU, which is located on the fourth floor of The Moncton Hospital, are done so based on an assessment provided by a neurosurgeon or neurologist and intensivist. The multidisciplinary health care team of the NICU is responsible for monitoring and ventilators, hemodynamic and intracranial pressure. The team consists of physicians, nurses, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, social workers, speech-language pathologists, dietitians, pharmacists, ward clerks, ward aides, pastoral care and discharge planning. The Irving Neurosciences ICU opened on March 27, 1996 in honour of the Irving group whose contribution to the Centennial Campaign for Neurosciences and Trauma Care lead to its outstanding success.
