April 5, 2023 – Hartford HealthCare and Connecticut Children’s are partnering to offer what will be the only fetal care center in New England with a dedicated delivery unit.
Hartford said that the center will serve high-risk babies and their families and be located at Hartford’s main campus in the city before relocating into a new expanded tower facility set to be open in 2025.
“Connecticut Children’s is committed to advancing pediatric healthcare through innovative centers and programs,” Bob Duncan, COO of Connecticut Children’s, said in a statement. “This center is an invaluable resource to our state and region and will ensure expecting moms have access to the kind of compassionate and personalized care they deserve, especially when trying to navigate these complex fetal diagnoses.”
Hartford HealthCare operates seven acute care hospitals, while Connecticut Children’s has four such locations.
