Maternity
(Labor and Delivery, 3 main)
The UPMC Hamot Maternity Unit, which includes a 10-bed Labor and Delivery Unit and an 18-bed Post-Partum Unit, is founded on a family-centered care model to ensure optimal bonding and educational opportunities for our families. The unit averages 900-1,200 births per year.
In the Post-Partum Unit, nurses provide couplet care to mothers and babies to promote bonding and to encourage a smooth transition from hospital to home. The transition nursery adjoins the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit to ensure optimal safety for newborns. Certifications include NCC, NRP and ACLS.
Nurses in the Labor and Delivery Unit care for obstetrics patients with medical, surgical, endocrine-related problems or pregnancy trauma. The unit is equipped with an operating room and recovery room to manage caesarian sections and emergencies, and also has six LDRs and four additional antepartum rooms to care for high-risk or acutely ill patients.
