The Labor & Delivery/Recovery/Postpartum/Women’s Health Unit is located on the 3rd floor and features 14 beds, including a Level 1 nursery. Renovated in 2018, the unit provides comprehensive care for labor, delivery, recovery, and postpartum patients, with Cesarean sections performed in a dedicated C-section suite.

We offer seven-day-a-week lactation support, 24/7 in-house Neonatal NPs, and anesthesia coverage. All nurses are cross-trained in labor and delivery, postpartum, well-baby nursery, and GYN care, and we also accept post-op GYN patients. RN call coverage averages 40 hours per six-week period. We are seeking team players who are compassionate and committed to lifelong learning.
