Transport Program at Miller Children’s & Women’s Hospital Long Beach

Answering the Call for Emergency Care

The Transport Program at Miller Children’s & Women's Hospital Long Beach has a specialized care team to safely transport infants, children, young adults and high-risk expectant mothers who need life-saving specialty care. The team provides the same level of care by ground or air transport that a child or mother would receive at Miller Children’s – 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

The Transport Program makes transferring a patient easy for patients and their families. The transport team coordinates all aspects of the transfer – securing the ambulance, arriving with the transport team and transporting the critically ill baby, child or mother to Miller Children’s. Once at Miller Children’s, patients will be admitted to one of the specialized critical care units, such as the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), Cherese Mari Laulhere Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) or the Perinatal Special Care Unit (PSCU) at the BirthCare Center at Miller Children’s. Miller Children’s offers in-house board-certified and-eligible hospitalists, intensivists, neonatologists and anesthesiologists are available 24/7 to deliver the highest quality of care.
