Skilled Medical Staff

You can never be over-prepared for a birth. We have expert registered nurses and staff on hand 24/7 who safely provide care for you and your baby during the labor, delivery, and recovery process. Our registered nurses are certified through the Association of Women’s Health, Obstetric and Neonatal Nurses (AWHONN) and are nationally certified through the National Certification Corporation (NCC) in Electronic Fetal Monitoring. If your child requires any special medical attention, our team is trained and experienced in providing comprehensive infant care.

Delivering By C-Section

At Central Valley Medical Center, we are dedicated to caring for women who have had surgery. Moms who deliver by Cesarean section have caregivers with specialized expertise, which maximizes your recovery process.

Whether your C-section is scheduled ahead of time or performed unexpectedly, a fully equipped operating room is located in the same unit in the event that a cesarean section is needed. You and your baby will be transferred to the recovery room, with skin-to-skin contact introduced as soon as your baby is stable to start the bonding process.

Recovery

You and your baby can recoup and rest easy in our recovery rooms that were designed with our patients and their families in mind. Each private room is spacious and bright with lots of natural light making each and every room feel safe, warm, and comfortable just like home. Our rooms we designed for mothers and babies to be together post-delivery to help in physical recovery and parent bonding. Rooms include their own bathroom, TV, and extra sleeping space for a support person. Room-service menus for postpartum moms and support persons offer a wide variety of tasty selections that you cant find at other hospitals.

Labor is an exciting experience, but also a difficult one. Our team will be by your side every step of the way, ready to address your needs as they arise. The compassionate and knowledgeable delivery staff will be coaching you through every stage of delivery and post-birth care until you and your new family leave the hospital to begin your new life.

Security and Well-Newborn Nursery

Your families safety and experience is our top priority. Our labor and delivery suites are in a dedicated lockdown unit. Visitors must provide a unique access code givin to each patient to gain entry and exit to the unit, along with a security ID tag that is put on the baby once the baby is born and never removed until the baby is discharged.

The newborn nursery at CVMC provides a safe, secure environment where physicians, nursing, and respiratory staff can assess the health needs of your baby, and provide more intensive care should the need arise. The nursery provides family-centered care, and we encourage non-separation of parents and babies in order to promote bonding and successful breast feeding. However, if you would like to rest, the nursery is available.

Web Nursery

Family and friends are never too far away to share in the joy of a baby's birth. Central Valley Medical Center's Web Nursery lets friends and family of our maternity patients the opportunity to view their "new arrival" soon after delivery.

To protect patient privacy, babies are included in the Web Nursery only with written parental consent, and we do not use any last names.
