At ENMMC family care is about more than just our top-notch equipment and highly trained professionals. Our physicians, staff and volunteers offer a lot of high tech care, in a very nurturing environment. From our free Tiny Toes educational program, to patient rooms with the comfort of home, to our personal attention, we show a commitment to excellence in the care and support of women, babies and children.
The Family Care Services units are secured with a code-entry system to protect against infant and child abduction.
