Is the Connecticut Childbirth & Womens Center certified by the American Association of Birth Centers (AABC) or other such national organization?
Yes. The Connecticut Childbirth & Women’s Center is one of only approximately 50 birth centers in the United States accredited by the Commission for the Accreditation of Childbirth Centers, an arm of the American Association of Birth Centers (AABC). The birth center adheres strictly to all NACC guidelines and is based on the midwifery model of care. The Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) has also completed a thorough evaluation. We were granted and have maintained full accreditation in August 1998.
