Family-Centered Care
St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center believes that the childbirth experience is a very personal and special experience. We provide a family-centered approach while still providing expert care. Through our Fetal Care Center of Arizona at St. Joseph's, we care for high-risk pregnancies and the most fragile of infants.

Our Labor Care Area consists of the Labor, Delivery & Recovery Rooms. There is a dedicated area for high-risk deliveries within the Labor and Delivery Unit. Our Level III Nursery Intensive Care Unit, providing care for premature infants or those who may special needs, is located on the same floor.
Our Couplet Care area is an added component where your baby can be with you 24 hours a day if you wish (unless there are special services needed) to allow for the "bonding" process to begin. The Continuing Care Nursery is located on the same floor as Couplet Care. Our highly- skilled staff is extensively trained in the labor, delivery and newborn specialties. They are there for you and your family every step of the way during your childbirth experience.
