Organised by South Tees Hospitals CharityWe are the official charity of the Neonatal Unit at James Cook Hospital. Your generous donations help the many babies and their families who come to our hospital for treatment and care, making their experience the best it possibly can be.
The majority of the 5,600 babies who are born in the trust every year are well and can go home relatively quickly with no problems.
Some however, may be born early or sick and will need the services of our neonatal department. Their stay on our units may be only for a few days for support or it may be for several weeks.
The Neonatal Unit at James Cook includes intensive care and high dependency facilities and is where we care for sick and premature infants. We have ten intensive care/high dependency cots and a number of special care cots and carry out various forms of respiratory support and other intensive therapies including infant cooling.
The unit is relatively large and we have a number of specialised equipment for use to keep our babies warm, monitor them and support them during their stay.
Charities pay a small fee for our service. Learn more about fees
