Pediatric Intensive Care Unit

Pediatric Intensive Care Unit

Overview

Intensive care for a child is very different compared to care for an adult. From the diagnosis to the treatment, a child needs special and customised care. A child is kept under the supervision of a critical care specialist or intensivist trained in pediatric care.

Pediatric Intensive Care Unit

The Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) at  Sitaram Bhartia has been established with an aim to provide care for sick children between 1 month old infants to 15 year old adolescents for critical needs or emergencies.

We believe in providing 1:1 nursing care with every effort to intensively monitor their progress while ensuring their comfort and well-being. 

Our critical care specialists are available round the clock to provide the care you can trust™
