The special healthcare needs of newborns, infants, children and adolescents are the primary focus for the UMC Children's Hospital. Housed on the second floor of UMC, the Children's Hospital treats patients using the most advanced technology available today.

The Children's Hospital provides both general and specialized services for children including developmental assessment, genetic diagnosis and counseling and family education classes. For children who require special care, the hospital includes a 15-bed Pediatric Intensive Care Unit and a 42-bed Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, which consists of a Special Care Nursery and a Grower's Nursery.

The Children's Hospital at UMC is also the premiere hospital in the region to provide an ECMO unit for babies and children with acute lung and heart disorders. Combining the talents of more than 30 specialists and subspecialists with nurses, social workers and therapists, the children of this region have at their disposal a team of experts second to none.

UMC Children's Hospital is also proud to be the region's Children's Miracle Network affiliated hospital...an affiliation since 1983 that has helped to establish and continually secure the finest pediatric healthcare for all the Children of the South Plains and Eastern New Mexico region based on need, not their ability to pay.
