San Angelo Special Care Nursery (NICU)
Focused Care For Infants
If your baby should need more specialized care, our Special Care Nursery is equipped with high-level technology and certified staff to care for babies with special needs.
The Texas Department of State Health Services designated Shannon as a Level II Neonatal Facility (Special Care Nursery) in Perinatal Care Region-K.
Shannon was the first level II neonatal unit in Texas to be surveyed by the Texas EMS Trauma and Acute Care Foundation (TETAF), and one of the first level II neonatal units to receive designation. As a level II Special Care Nursery, Shannon will continue to provide the same level of specialty and intensive care that our patients and families are accustomed to.
The designation comes as a result of legislation passed in 2013 requiring Texas to establish and implement neonatal and maternal level of care designations by March 1, 2018, with the intent of ensuring neonatal special care and intensive care units have the resources and expertise to provide high-quality patient care that leads to the best outcomes for newborn patients and their families.
Texas is one of the first states requiring neonatal care units to undergo a site visit to verify the level of care provided to patients meets the Neonatal Levels of Care classifications as defined in the Texas Administrative Code.
