Hi @alishanjosh,

Here are some details about the Cardiac Surgery Intensive Care Unit (CSICU), pediatric unit; I’ve copied relevant information:

– Children who have heart surgery, heart transplantation or those in need of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy are cared for in the CSICU, an 11-bed ICU with private rooms.
– Location: Mary Brigh Building, fifth floor (MB 5B)
– A primary nurse is assigned to each pediatric patient on admission and a family-centered approach is used. Patient rooms have video-viewing equipment. Photos are taken throughout the hospital stay and photo albums are available to record your child's hospital experience. https://www.mayoclinic.org/patient-visitor-guide/minnesota/clinic-hospital-buildings/mayo-eugenio-litta-childrens-hospital/pediatric-units

Thank you for your response. I did see this information as well before I posted this discussion, I was just hoping to get more clarity on it. It does state that they are private rooms but I was wondering if these rooms had the availability for parents to stay over night.
