Please help us congratulate our latest Daisy Award Winner, Alisson Samaniego, RN, Emergency Department, who was nominated by a grateful patient for her kindness, compassion, and empathy.

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about my ED nurse, Alisson. From the moment she walked into the room, she made me feel safe, seen, and truly cared for. She went above and beyond in every possible way not just treating me but advocating for me when I needed it most. In what was a scary and overwhelming moment, Alisson was my calm. She explained everything with clarity, made sure I was comfortable, and never once made me feel like just another patient. Her compassion and dedication were so genuine, and it made all the difference. If every patient had an Alisson in the ED, the world would be a better place. She is not just an exceptional nurse she is a true angel in scrubs. Thank you, Alisson, from the bottom of my heart.”

Our NICU Community

Welcome to the Saint Barnabas Medical Center (SBMC) Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) support page. Many NICU parents agree, the period following the birth of a premature infant can be a difficult time that brings with it many unique questions and concerns. That’s why we created this page, to provide SBMC NICU families with helpful information and support they need, both during and after their baby’s stay in our NICU. We encourage families to use this platform to share graduate stories of their unique experiences and act as an inspiration to those families currently in our NICU.

As a Level III Regional Perinatal Center, the NICU offers the latest treatments and modalities in the field to provide the most advanced care for more than 1,200 premature and ill newborns each year.

Mothers who are at high risk for complications during pregnancy come to Saint Barnabas Medical Center for our specialized prenatal care and take comfort in the fact that, if their baby needs special care after birth, our NICU is among the best in the country and is equipped to diagnose and treat a variety of problems.
