Obstetrics

Doctor and newbornThe MCRHC Obstetrics Unit provides individualized care by our nursing staff. The unit consists of two LDRP (labor, delivery, recovery & postpartum) rooms and one general care room. In the LDRP rooms our patients labor, deliver their infant and are cared for during the remainder of their hospital stay without having to move. Each room has a private bathroom with a shower, television and telephone.

Rooming in of the newborn with the mother is welcomed to allow each mother and other family members the opportunity to bond with the newest family member.
