Midwifery

Midwives add a unique component to our obstetrical program. The midwives share caring deliveries with their patients, emphasizing that the normal process of pregnancy and birth can be enhanced through education, health care, and supportive intervention. Nurse -midwifery encourages continuity of care and emphasizes safe, competent clinical management. They advocate for non-intervention in normal processes and promote health education for women throughout their child bearing cycle.
