About Us

Monash Newborn is a 64 bed medical and surgical neonatal unit, with a reputation for delivering outstanding family centred care to neonates. Monash Newborn enjoys the many benefits of being co-located with the tertiary paediatric services at Monash Children's Hospital, and the tertiary Maternity services at Monash Medical Centre. With the support of a broad range of paediatric sub specialists, almost all neonatal medical and surgical problems can be managed 'in-house' at Monash Newborn, with the exception only of open-heart surgery, ECMO, and major metabolic disorders.

Having a premature or unwell baby in Monash Newborn places an enormous amount of stress on families. To ease the pressure on families and to make beds available for other infants in need, medically stable infants are down-transferred to a hospital closer to home as soon as possible.

Monash Newborn is overseen by two Nurse Managers, and 14 EFT of skilled and experienced Associate Nurse Managers (ANMs). In partnership with the Nurse Managers, the ANMs lead the team of Nurses who are committed to providing an excellent standard of health care to the newborn infant and their family.

The Monash Newborn medical team consists of a team of Neonatal Consultants, Fellows, and NMOs. The medical team provide a round-the-clock in-house presence of staff, who are experienced in neonatal care.

Monash Newborn has the support of a broad Multidisciplinary Allied Health team, including social work, physiotherapy, speech pathology, pharmacy, music therapy, occupational therapy and biomedical engineering.
