Cork University Maternity Hospital and UCC INFANT Centre have collaborated to provide virtual visiting for babies in the hospital's neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).

The new initiative allows families to remotely check-in on their baby amid Covid-19 visiting restrictions. The safe and secure platform can be accessed at any time, from any device and is available at no cost to the parents.

Staff record short video messages and updates of each baby which can then be sent directly to parents via the vCreate platform.

It is simple to use and parents can easily create an account that is linked directly to their baby, allowing them to download videos to share with siblings, grandparents and other family members.
