Where to go

If you arrive at the hospital between 6 AM and 9 PM, enter through the visitor's entrance. Parking is available in the visitor's parking lot. Take the elevator to the second-floor rear entrance (2R).

If you arrive at night, after 9 PM or before 6 AM, and your provider has alerted our team to your arrival, you may enter through the front door by ringing the bell for assistance. You may also enter through the Emergency Department. Someone will assist you and bring you to the Family Maternity Center.

Upon arrival, you will register with the front desk staff and then be sent to a triage area to assess your symptoms and any concerns. Please have identification readily available.

If you haven’t pre-registered online, you can fill out and bring it with you.

What’s next?

Once you are admitted to the hospital, you will be given a private room that is spacious enough for your one support person to stay with you. Our team is dedicated to providing a great experience for both vaginal and cesarean deliveries while honoring your preferences. With safety as a priority, we will explain the process step by step as you progress through your delivery and recovery. You will transfer to a postpartum room following your delivery where you and your baby will remain together for the duration of your stay. Visitors and loved ones are welcome.

During a vaginal labor, up to three visitors may be at the bedside. For a cesarean section, only one person is allowed in the operating room and recovery area for a duration of two hours.

In the post-partum suite, there is no limit on the number of visitors. However, only one designated support person may stay overnight, and this individual must be an adult.

We offer multiple pain management options for childbirth. We want to empower you to choose the approach that best suits your comfort and unique birth plan.

  • Birthing balls

You are never alone! We understand your birthing journey doesn’t stop at delivery. We provide our families with continued support through our Mommy & Me support group. Sharing your experiences with other parents who have similar and different experiences is enlightening, comforting and healing.
