Congratulations to our Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) Rehab Therapists who have been credentialed as Certified Neonatal Therapists (CNT) with the Neonatal Therapy Certification Board (NTCB). This distinguished certification highlights their commitment to clinical excellence and quality patient care for our most vulnerable population at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital.
