Types of care we provide

After birth, we support skin-to-skin contact between mother and baby within the first hour of your baby's life so that you can immediately begin to bond. Our board-certified lactation consultants are on hand to help and support you during the first few feedings. If necessary, our onsite 22-bed Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) is always prepared to take care of premature or ill newborns. We also provide maternal and neonatal transport by air and ground should a higher level of care be needed for mom or baby.

We have anesthesiologists, neonatologists in-house 24 hours a day, neonatal nursing staff and lactation consultants ready to provide round-the-clock care for you and your newborn. Our range of labor and delivery services includes:

As a Texas Ten Step designated hospital, we are dedicated to improving health outcomes for lactating women and their infants through evidence-based practices. We also offer educational support through a variety of childbirth education, breastfeeding and NICU CPR classes before your due date, as well as a newborn screening program after your delivery. Additionally, we have been recognized by Healthgrades as a recipient of the Labor and Delivery Excellence Award for superior clinical care of women during and after childbirth.
