Women’s Health – The Birth Place |
There is no greater joy than preparing for and welcoming a new baby into the family. The Birth Place at St. Alexius Medical Center is dedicated to helping you prepare for the delivery experience as well as providing state-of-the-art care for you and your newborn when the big day arrives. Prenatal Classes |
Labor, Delivery and Recovery Bonding with your baby is encouraged during the recovery period while you are still in Labor & Delivery. Friends and family are welcome to visit you and meet the new addition to your family. Once recovered; you and your baby will be moved to the Mom/Baby unit. While Brahm’s Lullaby plays overhead announcing that a new baby has arrived, you and your family will be escorted to your spacious family-centered room on the Mom/Baby unit. Each room is individually locked to protect you and your baby throughout your stay. Family and friends can share in your excitement by visiting our online nursery. Birth Place Babies is an online photo album in which you as the parent may wish to have a picture and the birth announcement of your newborn posted for others to see. While every family hopes and dreams of a healthy pregnancy, labor and delivery, sometimes things take an unexpected turn. Take comfort in knowing that The Birth Place has a Level III NICU providing the area’s most advanced neonatal care. An expert team of neonatologists, nurses, specialists and the region’s only full-time pediatric cardiologist work together to provide your baby the specialized care it needs. |
