Additional Programs
NICU Follow-Up Program
Hackensack Meridian Children’s Health offers NICU Follow-up Programs at Joseph M. Sanzari Children’s Hospital and K. Hovnanian Children’s Hospital. Both provide specialized care for infants born under 32 weeks, with low birth weight, or those diagnosed with genetic conditions.
Collaborating within a multidisciplinary framework, PM&R doctors evaluate children multiple times throughout the first three years of life to identify and manage any developmental difficulties at key points in time. They assess motor development, address any delays, and identify potential issues related to muscle tone or coordination.
By prioritizing timely interventions and minimizing wait times, the program gives parents comprehensive information, realistic goals and a supportive framework. This ensures that infants receive the specialized attention they deserve through ongoing collaboration between pediatricians and other health care providers.
