One of the greatest advantages of a hospital-based birth center is access to a multi-faceted care team working collaboratively in one location. Families can still choose to labor and deliver with the support of a midwife and/or doula, while also having on-site access to obstetricians, nurses, anesthesiologists, pediatricians, respiratory therapists, lactation consultants and tele-NICU specialists.

If unexpected complications arise, advanced medical care—including operating rooms and tele-NICU services—is immediately available. This integrated approach provides confidence in your care while supporting a safe, seamless delivery.

When it’s time to welcome your little one, choose a setting that supports both your birth experience and your peace of mind. To establish prenatal care or discuss transferring care, please contact Island Obstetrics & Gynecology – 24th Street at 360.299.4212.
