Neonatology Services
Our providers have approximately 30 years experience providing neonatology services with several years experience providing services via a telemedicine model. Our excellent neonatology providers and experienced, highly-skilled NNP providers offer 24/7 hands-on neonatology coverage.
As our providers are available at all times, we also serve as an excellent resource to the pediatric community to provide well baby care as-needed.
For those sites wishing to upgrade to a higher level of care, our team can assist in navigating the process, and UTS can efficiently expand its professional services accordingly. In addition, the UTS team has experience designing and launching transport systems for Level 3 facilities to coordinate bringing neonates requiring higher levels of care to the hub hospital.
