• We receive transports from all of New Hampshire, Southern Vermont, and occasionally Maine.
• We have a robust midwifery service along with a generalist physician service. We provide antepartum care, intrapartum care, postpartum care, normal newborn care, and focus care newborn care.
• We have a two-bed triage room in which we triage all of our own patients.
• Our unit includes two operating rooms (ORs) in which everyone is trained in perioperative care, i.e. circulating and scribing in the OR, and Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) services.
• We collaborate with many units in the organization including the Emergency Department, Intensive Care Unit (ICU), Cardiovascular Critical Care (CVCC), and the Main Operating Room to provide highly specialized care to our pregnant and postpartum patients. The Intensive Care Nursery (ICN or NICU) is next door to us and we have a very close relationship with their team.
• What makes nurses successful on the Birthing Pavilion is the ability to adapt and change as patients and their needs change. It is not unheard of to transition through all of our modalities of care in a single shift.
