Neonatal ICU

Brenthurst runs four different timetables and the neonatal ICU is the outlier: open from 08:00 to 18:00 for two parents at a time, with one grandparent allowed. Adult ICU adds a late-morning slot the general wards do not have, but allows only one visitor per patient unless you arrange more with the unit manager. General and maternity wards allow two. No children under 12 anywhere, no cellphones in the adult or neonatal ICU, and visits outside these hours need to be agreed with hospital management first.
