The Centre for Paediatrics at Annai Velankanni cares for children from birth to 10 years of age. We provide a full range of clinical services, tertiary care, and health promotion and prevention programmes for children and adolescents. The facility is equipped with a Paediatric Intensive Care Unit with state-of-the-art facilities, ventilator care, vaccination and a ‘well baby’ clinic. It offers 24-hour neonatal care with a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit managed by renowned neonatologists and specially trained doctors and nurses. We provide care to high-risk babies, including those with very low birth weight, weighing as little as 900 grams. The paediatricians at this centre are experts in child care and are backed by a full-fledged support team.
