Childbirth Technology
Newton Medical Center has always sought to provide the very best in maternity care. All of our nurses are specially trained in neonatal advanced life support. Our goal is to keep mother and baby side by side, however, we have a fully equipped nursery for occasions when baby needs extra special care.

The BirthCare Center contains additional advanced technology should Mother Nature need a little help. The option of epidural and spinal anesthesia is available to provide comfort to the laboring mother. With a planned C-Section, this option is also available, allowing the mother to remain awake to experience the birth of her child.

You can have confidence that The BirthCare Center is much more than beautiful surroundings...it's everything you need for a happy, healthy childbirth.
