At Grande Ronde Hospital's (GRH) Family Birthing Center, we believe that welcoming a new life should be a joyous and unforgettable experience. That’s why we strive not just to meet your expectations—but to exceed them—by offering exceptional care, comfort, privacy and security throughout your journey.
Expert Maternity Care You Can Trust
Our Family Birthing Center is staffed by a team of highly skilled and experienced providers and registered nurses are dedicated to staying at the forefront of obstetric health care. We continuously invest in the latest technology and training to ensure you and your baby receive the best possible care.
For those rare situations where specialized care is needed, you can rest easy knowing that we lead the region in telemedicine. This advanced technology allows for real-time, face-to-face consultations with neonatologists—providing peace of mind that expert advice is just a screen away.
A Comfortable and Secure Birthing Center
We understand that a positive birthing experience goes beyond great medical care. It’s about feeling safe, comfortable and supported. That’s why our spacious, private birthing rooms are designed with your comfort in mind. Outfitted with the latest equipment, our rooms allow for in-room labor and delivery, making your experience as seamless as possible. We welcome families to be part of this special moment, whether it's offering coaching during labor or providing a space for fathers to stay overnight.
Bonding Time with Your Newborn
After your baby is born, we encourage you to keep them with you for as long as you like. However, if your baby needs to stay in our nursery, you can relax knowing that they are under constant watch with our state-of-the-art HUGS security system, which provides 24/7 monitoring throughout your stay. Our secured visitor access also ensures that you have the privacy and rest you need, allowing you to decide who visits and when.
