Princeton Baptist Medical Center Deploys NICVIEW™ Technology to Keep NICU Babies and Families Connected

Addition of live streaming cameras for parents and families to access their newborn 24/7 made possible by the generosity of the Baptist Health Foundation

BIRMINGHAM, ALA - When a new bundle of joy requires extra special medical care in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), it’s only natural that parents and extended family might feel overwhelmed. At Princeton Baptist Medical Center, the dedicated staff works hard to relieve those fears by providing compassionate care for any premature or at-risk baby. 

Further enhancing this care, Princeton Baptist Medical Center is proud to deploy the NICVIEW^™ Live Streaming Camera Systems in its Level III NICU thanks to the generosity of the Baptist Health Foundation. Parents and family members can now see their baby at all times, even when they cannot be there in person. The password-protected camera provides parents and family members a secure, virtual window to their newborn in the NICU.

“This new and protected technology is giving families and loved ones another way to connect with their baby, even when they cannot be physically present in our Level III NICU,” said Mike Neuendorf, CEO of Princeton Baptist Medical Center. “We understand the challenges families face when their child is in the NICU, often unexpectedly, so we are trying to take concerns about separation out of the equation. Families can see their baby at any time, and feel secure knowing their baby is receiving the very best care possible at our hospital.”

Neuendorf added, “The addition of the NICVIEW technology is the latest example of the longstanding generosity of the Baptist Health Foundation. The Foundation’s service across the Baptist Health System is instrumental in providing patients and their families with much-needed resources, and they are truly an extension of our mission to extend the healing ministry of Christ through holistic, people-centered health care. We are incredibly thankful for their continued support.”

Some of the benefits of the NICVIEW include:

• On-Demand HD quality video streaming
• Encrypted password protected software
• Available 24/7
