The Pediatric Intensive Care Unit features a 12-bed, all private-room facility that is staffed by pediatric critical care doctors.
It is located on the second floor of the north wing on the Iowa Methodist Medical Center / Blank Children's Hospital campus.
The intensive care team helps care for critically-ill or injured infants, children and teens.
