NICU Transport Team

Palm Beach Health Network provides transport services for critically ill neonatal patients who need intensive care or other specialty services. Our mission is to provide expert and immediate response to requests for emergency transport or consultation. These units function as an extension of Palm Beach Children’s Hospital and West Boca Medical Center.

The teams are comprised of nurses and respiratory therapists who have expertise in neonatal /critical care transport. In a transport situation, the referring facility speaks directly with our transfer center nurse to arrange the details of the transfer by air or ground transport.

We have partnered with the Health Care District and American Medical Response to safely transport patients by ambulance or helicopter based on emergent needs.

Pediatric Critical Care Transport  

Getting your child to the right doctor  

In the event that a critically-ill child requires treatment at our Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, Palm Beach Children’s Hospital has a transport team that is ready to receive patients via ground or air emergency transport.  

Our Pediatric Critical Care Transport Team consists of a critical care respiratory therapist, a pediatric critical care RN or ARNP and EMTs with training in transport care, including patient stabilization and resuscitation.

Ground Transport 

Palm Beach Children’s Hospital will arrive with a dedicated ambulance, allowing for efficient transport for pediatric patients from referring facilities. During a transfer, our pediatric critical care transport team remains in contact with hospital-based physicians to help ensure a smooth transition into care upon arriving at our hospital. 

Air Transport

In partnership with the Health Care District of Palm Beach County’s Trauma Hawk, we provide air transportation in the even that a severely ill or injured child requires acute care at our hospital.
