Critical Care Newborn Services is a group of board-certified neonatologists who supervise care in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Ochsner Lafayette General Medical Center in Lafayette, Louisiana. The group focuses on the health of newborns requiring intensive hospital care, with physicians available to support the NICU around the clock. Its business office is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and families can access registration, billing, staff, and contact information through the practice.

The group highlights its commitment to measuring and improving the quality of neonatal care. It uses performance indicators from the Vermont Oxford Network, an international database of NICU outcomes, to compare rates of complications associated with prematurity. According to the practice, sustained improvement efforts begun in 2006 have led to better performance across these indicators, with results comparing favorably against NICUs in Louisiana, the United States, and worldwide. The site also shares information about conditions including hospital-acquired infections, necrotizing enterocolitis, and chronic lung disease, and lists career opportunities for neonatologists.
