Labor and Delivery

No child birthing experience is alike. There are many important decisions for moms and dads to make before and during this exciting time. At UF Health Flagler Hospital, we are committed to helping families achieve their desired experience while always placing the health of mom and baby at the forefront.

UF Health Flagler Hospital's Birth Unit has been designed to accommodate all types of delivery preferences. We offer specialty rooms for low-intervention birth experiences (shown right) where qualified patients and their families can enjoy aromatherapy, hydrotherapy, music of choice, birthing balls and nursing care from any staff member who have been trained in alternative methods of pain relief. As this may not be an option for everyone, we also provide 24-hour access to anesthesiologists and all of our patients enjoy the unique amenities of our family-based unit. Our private rooms are decorated with soft lighting, soothing colors and furnished to provide a comfortable, nurturing homelike environment for you, your baby and your family during your stay. Each room is equipped with a rocking chair, a sleeper sofa for a guest, and a flat screen TV with DVD player.
