A Birth Plan Centered On You

Victoria Johnson-Chavez and Family

Your birth plan is shared with all the members of your care team so everyone knows what you want — and don’t want — from your birth experience.

Our nursing staff works with you in advance of your delivery to learn about your preferences and build a birth plan. And even when things don’t go according to plan, Gritman is always ready for the unexpected.

New moms love our large, modern labor and delivery rooms as well as the privacy and comfort of our postpartum recovery suites. But they also appreciate the advanced, life-saving technology that’s always within reach.
