Reddington Hospital, one of the leading multi-specialist hospitals in Nigeria recently achieved a great feat in health care delivery by successfully taking care of 25-week Premature Baby Beauty and reunited her with the family.

Head of Paediatrics, Dr. Olajide Ojo, consultant Neonatologists/Paediatricians said; “Reddington has a level 3 Neonatal Intensive Care Unit , one of the very few in the country and this unit was set up following an investment, funded by the Bank of Industry and Access Bank of Nigeria, and the aim is to offer and provide quality healthcare to neonates including preterm babies.”

He explained that this is one of the reasons Reddington Multi-specialist Hospital took step, not only to blaze the trail and change the narrative in the care of the newborn space, but also to set a better standard of care for this vulnerable age group. For ease of comparison, an average normal new-born baby weighs about 3kg, meaning this baby was about a quarter of the weight of a new-born. While there are always huge challenges in the in management of these prematures anywhere in the world especially those at 25 weeks of gestation, however our team rose to the task successfully dealing with various complications and challenges that came up throughout her 65 days stay in hospital.
