The focus of our well-trained and compassionate OB staff at Cogdell Memorial Hospital is to provide personal and expert care during one of the most important and precious times in the life of you and your family. We have a family-oriented environment —fathers, siblings and other special people are encouraged to play active roles at this special time through flexible visiting hours. |
The private, spacious, modern birthing rooms are equipped with state of the art birthing beds and Panda™ Baby Warmers by GE Healthcare. Continuous fetal monitoring is used during labor and a whirlpool is available to help ease the labor. |

"Rooming in" allows mothers and their infants to deepen their bond
before leaving the hospital
We place identification bands on infants and parents immediately at
birth. This, along with a number of other security measures, ensures the
safety of you and your newborn during your hospital stay.
