Maternity

Congratulations on your pregnancy! We know from experience that this is an extraordinary time for you, as you prepare for the upcoming birth of your child. Our number one goal for each and every family who entrusts their care to us is to make your childbirth experience as fulfilling and memorable as possible. That’s why we have created our very own maternity care model called "Family-Centered Care." The model emphasizes the nuclear family unit throughout the birthing process — from admission to discharge — and allows mother and child to stay together every moment that you’re with us. The family-oriented philosophy that guides all of our efforts encourages parents and children to bond from the very beginning, since that’s what you want to concentrate on after delivery.

Our maternity team prides themselves on excellent customer and employee satisfaction scores that can be attributed to the relationship of mutual respect between the physicians and staff in the care we provide to you, our patient. Our state-of-the-art fetal surveillance and perinatal documentation systems, as well as our newly renovated Level II nursery, demonstrate our commitment to providing the best care to the newest members of our community, as well as you, as a mother.

  • Lactation Expertise: Our staff will answer any questions about lactation both during and after your hospital stay and will guide you in all breastfeeding matters.
  • Liaison Services: An Orthodox liaison is available should you require assistance.
  • State-of-the-Art Security: Our Infant Security System ensures that your child is safe at all times.
  • Paperwork Assistance: Birth certificate registrar helps new moms with the requisite paperwork.
  • Admissions and Financial Consultation: Financial representatives process your admission forms and address your insurance questions.

If you would like to schedule a tour of our unit or would like additional information about our maternity classes please call Meridian Health Line at 1-800-560-9990.
