About Trinity's Women's Health & Birth Center

The Women's Health & Birth Center is proud to offer total maternity care. Our specially qualified staff of dedicated nurses and physicians guides you and your family through a comprehensive education program and the childbirth experience. At the Women's Health & Birth Center you deliver your baby  in a specially designed childbearing room for your entire hospital stay: admission procedures, labor, delivery, recovery.  Your post-partum stay is in a speciually designed room that makes the family experience one you will always remember.

Our private childbearing rooms are equipped for the entire birth experience. All forms of pain relief except general anesthesia may be provided in this room. The childbearing room also has the capacity for fetal monitors, radiant infant warmers, and life support technology, if required. Cesarean deliveries are performed in the Women's Health & Birth Center in a modern, state of the art surgical suite, with labor and postpartum care provided in a Women's Health & Birth Center Suite. The surgical suite may also be used by those wishing a more traditional birth experience.

Private Rooms

Upon arrival at the Women's Health & Birth Center, expectant mothers are admitted directly to a beautifully decorated, private room. Each room is spacious and attractive, with an attached bathroom. We know that having your own room gives your family the privacy to fully share and enjoy this important life event.

All rooms feature solid oak furniture, including birthing beds, which adjust to various labor and delivery positions to help you be more comfortable. Rocking chairs, bassinet, a sleeper chair for partners, and warm, friendly staff all help create a pleasing, restful environment.

The Family Invitation

Fathers are encouraged to stay at the hospital; sleeping accommodations are provided at no extra charge. In order to allow your children and the baby's grandparents to become acquainted with your new baby, family visiting hours are from 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM. Extended family and friends are welcome to visit from 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM daily.

Mothering and Baby Nursing

At the Women's Health & Birth Center, rooming-in is flexible and designed to meet your individual needs. You and your family are partners with us in the care of your baby. If YOU want to rest or have time alone, we can care for your baby in our well-equipped nursery near your room.

In the Women's Health & Birth Center, a specially trained perinatal nurse is assigned to each mother and baby to provide personal, individualized care. Extra time and teaching are integral parts of the attention we give all families.

Going Home

After discharge, we know that questions often arise and it is good to have someone with whom you can talk. But even more, we are interested in you and we want to provide as much care and assistance as we can during this special time in your life. Once home, a perinatal nurse from the Women's Health & Birth Center is available for consultation through telephone calls to all patients. Simply call 740-264-8040 at anytime of the day or night if you need assistance or information.
