The Birthplace
When the decision is made to deliver at Stormont-Vail, the patient’s physician will give her a “Gift of Motherhood” Handbook for Pregnancy and Parenting, which provides information on admissions and classes, prenatal care, labor and birth, postpartum care, infant feeding and health and safety. This handbook is offered in English and Spanish. To prepare expectant parents, Stormont-Vail offers a full range of family-centered programs in prenatal, sibling and infant care. The Birthplace does not stop caring for families once they are dismissed from the hospital. The Birthplace offers a postpartum visit for the mother and baby by the clinical staff. The Breastfeeding/Follow Up Clinic serves as an excellent support system for mothers breastfeeding or bottle feeding their babies. The clinic is available 10 a.m. to noon Monday through Friday and 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. Saturday. For more information about The Birthplace, call (785) 354-5225 or to pre-register online, click here. |
