The 9AB Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at TriHealth Good Samaritan Hospital is a specialized 60-bed unit dedicated to providing high-risk neonates with the level III NICU care they need. The unit is committed to a family-centered developmental care approach, ensuring that both the infants and their families receive the support they need during this critical time.
