Miracles
JRMC Family BirthPlace is dedicated to providing the support, education and high-quality birthing services to help you have a happy and healthy pregnancy, delivery and hospital experience.
We want to ensure your birth experience is centered around your desires while providing a safe and healthy delivery for you and your baby as our primary goal.
Whether this is your first baby or you’re already a parent, this new baby is unique. To help answer some of the questions that may come up during the first few weeks after your baby is born, the nurses at JRMC’s Family BirthPlace have put together “Your Guide to Becoming a Parent” booklet.

Meticulous planning went into the design of the Family BirthPlace. While some may consider them small touches, we understand these details can be monumental comforts during the birthing and postpartum experiences.
Birthing Suites
Private Labor-Delivery-Recovery-Postpartum (LDRP) rooms let the entire birthing experience take place in a single room. All the rooms are private and designed to encourage mother-baby bonding. Family-centered care is supported by providing a sleeper sofa and comfortable chair. Each room is equipped with a 40-inch TV DVD module. The state-of-the-art nurse call system increases communication between nurses and patients. Private bathrooms with whirlpool tub enhance laboring comfort. Features include a labor/delivery bed, fetal monitoring system, special lighting and infant warming beds.
Postpartum Rooms
These rooms are designed for care of the post C-section patients and hospitalized pregnant patients who are not in labor. Postpartum rooms feature many of the same, home-like amenities as the birthing suites.
The Family BirthPlace encourages mothers to keep their baby in the room with them (rooming-in). The newborn nursery is available with state-of-the-art equipment to provide care for newborns when they are not with their mothers. Additional services provided by the nursery include phototherapy, IV therapy and oxygen therapy.
To keep you and your baby safe we are a locked unit and have installed the Hugs Infant Security System. This system has been expanded to the entire Patient Care Unit to ensure coverage of all pediatric patients.

Being mothers ourselves, our nursing staff understands how important support is after you take your baby home. To ensure your baby is gaining weight and feeding well, we see babies back in one to three days. We will weigh the baby and do a color assessment to check for jaundice. We will also assess feeding, either bottle or breast, to make certain baby is doing well. Parents are encouraged to ask questions and verbalize any concerns with both baby and new mom.
