Labor and delivery

Just as every baby is unique, so is every delivery. As your trusted care partner, we work to provide a personalized birthing experience that begins long before your first contraction and continues well after delivery.

Birthing center in Pensacola

HCA Florida West Florida hospital provides you with comprehensive care throughout your pregnancy, childbirth experience and postpartum recovery.

We understand you need comfort, privacy and personalization in your birth experience. That's why we offer specialized birth plans, private rooms and services that enable you to have as much family involvement as you want. Our OB/GYNs and nurses guide and support you throughout your entire labor and delivery.

Childbirth classes

At The Family Birthplace, we want to make you feel comfortable and confident in your childbirth journey. We offer childbirth preparation classes to help prepare you for labor and childbirth, and we are here to answer any questions you may have.

Our maternity care program

When you choose us for your childbirth experience, you will receive support throughout your pregnancy.

Family-centered childbirth services

We encourage the involvement of family and friends in the birth process. We also provide accommodations for your partner or a loved one to be with you 24 hours a day — during labor and delivery and throughout your hospital stay.

After birth, your baby will stay with you in your room. Grandparents, other family members and friends are invited to visit with you and your baby as often as you'd like.

Patient-focused maternity suites

It's important to have the people you want and need close by, but we also understand the importance of privacy. We've put an end to the game of "musical doors" where you're continually moved from labor room, to delivery room, to recovery room. Instead, the maternity suites at The Family Birthplace are designed so that most mothers can labor, deliver and recover in the same birthing suite throughout their entire hospital stay. Our physicians, nurses and midwives will come to you, bringing any necessary equipment along with them.

This system is referred to as LDRP (labor, delivery, recovery and postpartum) care, and ensures you and your family have optimal privacy to share this very personal, intimate time together.
