It's not always easy to find parking at St. Mike's. There's a Green P parking
space across the street, or you can find street parking like any other Toronto
landmark. Please excuse the construction as we try to build a brand new
state-of-the-art intensive care unit for all our patients including our babies.
The most common entrance will be here - the Queen Street entrance of St.
Michael's Hospital.
A key landmark that is often referred to by patients ...
and staff alike ...
is the Second Cup.
Welcome to St. Michael's Hospital.
You are now on the main floor of St. Michael's Hospital. You've just come
through the Queen Street entrance next to the Second Cup.
This floor is known in the hospital as B1.
In order to get to the 15th floor where the neonatal intensive care is, you need to
find the Cardinal Carter south elevators. There are multiple elevator systems in
this hospital, but the only ones that go to the 15th floor and the Neonatal
Intensive Care Unit are the Cardinal Carter elevators. You need to follow the
blue line until you get to those elevators.
You'll be passing the pharmacy on your left, where sometimes, if your baby needs
medications as an outpatient, a prescription can be filled here.
At the end of this hallway, you're going to be making a left.
We will be following the blue line until we get to the Cardinal Carter elevators.
on your right.
These elevators also go to the cafeteria (Marketeria), which is on the sixth floor of the
hospital, where there is also a Tim Hortons for your convenience.
So you've now arrived on the fifteenth floor. In order to access the NICU
you need to go through two secure entrances. The first security doors give
you general access to the 15th floor. You need to push a buzzer and wait for a
nurse to open up these doors.
As well as the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, the 15th floor takes care of women
who are having babies, as well as a postpartum area in which women are
recovering from having their babies.
The nursing station on your left is generally responsible for postpartum patients.
You make a right here.
On your right is a conference room for the various educational activities for
parents of NICU babies. The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit is coming up on your right.
