Comfortable, Private Delivery Rooms
The Labor and Delivery unit is designed to convey a home-like feel and
features four nicely decorated, private labor, delivery and recovery suites.
Each Labor and Delivery Room is equipped with equipment for monitoring
mother and baby and for delivery in the room. Most deliveries occur in
the private suites, but the operating room is nearby should a need arise.
Our nurses support the family throughout the birth process. For most mothers,
that means simple comfort measures, such as leisurely showers and walking
with their family. No matter what your birth experience entails, labor
and delivery nurses are there to guide and assist Mom and the family.
Preparing for Your Baby
Education is an important part of the labor and delivery experience as
well. Madera Community Hospital offers extensive classes and parenting
resources before and after delivery. Parents can preview the hospital
in the OB Tour and choose from classes in childbirth, breastfeeding, and
infant care.
