NICU Financial Assistance Fund

Your support will enable families to spend crucial time with their babies and alleviate the stress of parking expenses. A truly invaluable gift.

Each year hundreds of premature infants and babies with long-term health problems are cared for in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Families are suddenly faced with the stress of having a baby in the hospital and that stress is often compounded by lost wages and unforeseen expenses like medical bills, child care for siblings, meals, transportation and parking.

The Yale New Haven Children’s Hospital NICU Family Advisory Council works to alleviate the stress of parking expenses for NICU families who are struggling financially and those who are facing extended stays through the assistance of this fund. Your support of this effort will enable families to spend crucial time with their babies. A truly invaluable gift. Thank you!

"We just want to thank everyone for the excellent care and service extended to my husband during his recent Cataract Surgery on Dec 14, 2022. This includes the Pre-op RNs, wonderful caregivers, Front Desk Team, the OR Team and all others who had a hand in arranging the excellent transportation service to and back home from the surgical facility at Goose Lane. We had outstanding drivers for the trips. My husband's recovery has been excellent. We can't thank Yale New Haven Health enough."

"I’ve had two experiences with Yale New Haven Hospital. My mother had an aneurysm that other hospitals would not touch because of the risks - YNHH saved her life. My mother-in-law had three major surgeries and all went well. Amazing hospital, thank you for everything!"
