Our experienced transport team works year-round and is on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Our Mobile NICU offers coast-to-coast coverage to nine Central Florida counties, all within a 75 -mile radius of Orlando Health Winnie Palmer, and we strive to be en route within 30 minutes of receiving a call on the transport line. Depending on the distance and the severity of a newborn’s illness, we can also employ Orlando Health’s AirCare Helicopter to deliver the Transport Team to the referring hospital, when time and/or distance is critical.
Due to the sensitive nature of the instruments on board, and for the safety of our newborn patients and staff, only patients can be transported to the hospital in the Mobile NICU. We will make every effort possible for you to spend time with your baby prior to departure, and will help to answer any questions you may have.
