Hospital-based pediatric care
Some children need care beyond an outpatient visit — observation, admission, intensive monitoring or specialised newborn care. Royal Children’s Hospital in Kidwai Nagar lists outpatient and inpatient pediatric services along with NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) and PICU (Pediatric Intensive Care Unit) facilities.
Availability of beds and services can change. Families should contact the hospital directly to confirm current availability and admission arrangements.

NICU and PICU — what is the difference?
A NICU cares for newborn babies who need extra support, such as babies born early or babies who are unwell soon after birth. A PICU cares for infants and children who are critically ill and need close monitoring and intensive treatment.
