The Neonatal Unit at the Royal Lancaster Infirmary (RLI) is a level 2 unit with 1 intensive care cot, 2 High Dependency cots and 7 Special Care cots. Both sites have a well developed transitional care service which enables babies and their mothers to stay together when requiring additional support.
