Family Birthing Center: Care Team
Like you, nurturing is in our nature. Our caring begins before you check in and continues well after you return home. We start by calling you in advance to ask about your needs and answer your questions. Count on us to walk you through the entire process, provide comprehensive information and deliver personalized care from start to finish.
Once you check in, our expert staff will attend to your needs around the clock. Remember, you're in control, and the services we offer are as state-of-the-art as the technology we employ. So tell us what your choices are, and as a team, we'll work together to accommodate your wishes.
Our obstetric nurses have many years of experience in caring for mothers and newborns. Not only are they committed to delivering exceptional medical care, but they are also 100% focused on ensuring that your experience with us is nothing short of wonderful.
Your care team will meet twice a day to assess your progress and anticipate any special needs you may have ahead of time. For added peace of mind, a certified OB/GYN, an anesthesiologist and a neonatologist are available 24/7. We know that each birthing experience is unique, so we deliver highly personalized care that's designed specifically for you and your baby.
