Nicu uses kangaroo care, quiet, etc. how does that help babies?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: The nicu can be a very stressful place for the babies. There is a lot of activity and noises. They maybe undergoing procedures, and the incubators amplify sound. The interventions you mentioned help to provide a relaxing environment for the babies.
