Background: Neonatal sepsis is leading cause of mortality in neonates. The organism responsible for sepsis differed depending on the site of Neonatal care unit and country. In this study, we aimed to look at cause of sepsis and antibiotic sensitivity. Materials and Methods: Neonates admitted in the neonatal care unit of western regional hospital from 14th August 2012 to 14th July 2014were included in the study. Septic workup was done and culture was sent. Results of culture sensitivity were noted along with the sensitivity pattern. Results: Neonatal sepsis accounted for 38 percent of total admission in the neonatal unit. Staphylococcus aureus was the most common organism isolated which was followed by Escherichia coli (E coli). Staphylococcus aureus isolated was sensitive to Cloxacillin in 97% of cases. There were 5 % mortalities during the study period. Conclusion: Neonatal sepsis was the most common reason for admission and staphylococcus aureus was the most common organism.
