What is the difference between the Alternative Birthing Center and a traditional Labor and Delivery Unit?
The Alternative Birthing Center is available to low risk women. The unit provides a more natural approach to labor and birth and minimizes unnecessary intervention. Additional amenities include queen sized beds and the use of jacuzzi tubs, birthing balls, and birthing stools. Families and labor coaches are encouraged to play an active role in the birthing process at the Alternative Birthing Center.
