Neonatal and Pediatric Transport Teams
When the health of a critically ill child or newborn is at stake, every moment counts. CHRISTUS Health's dedicated neonatal and pediatric transport teams embody our commitment to providing specialized care when and where it's needed most.
Neonatal and pediatric transport teams are utilized in a variety of critical situations where a child or newborn requires a higher level of specialized care than what is available at their current location.
