The Carol Jenkins Barnett Pavilion for Women and Children is a special healthcare destination providing compassionate and safe care during life’s most important moments.

The Pavilion is designed to deliver clinical excellence and family-centered care for children and women of all ages, using best practices and state-of-the-art technology while offering privacy, comfort and elegance that redefines personalized care. Our Level III NICU allows us to provide treatment for babies born weighing less than 1,000 grams and for those who are more critically ill.

If you are beginning your journey as parents-to-be, we’d love to share our state-of-the-art Pavilion with you. We have created an inspiring and educational tour for pregnant women and their partners. One of our Women’s Services nurses will give you a peek at our rooms and services and can answer your questions.
