Spacious and Private Labor, Delivery, Recovery and Postpartum Suites (LDRP)

Attending childbirth classes can help you approach the big day with confidence. Knowing what to expect during labor, delivery and recovery may help reduce the anxiety you may have about your hospital stay. Visit the events page to register.
Immediate Skin-to-Skin Contact
Research shows that skin-to-skin contact in the first hour of a baby's life is extremely beneficial to a baby. We make every effort, outside of emergency situations, to facilitate this important, time-honored tradition.
Qualified Staff
Santa Rosa Medical Center has obstetricians (OBs) and delivery nurses on staff to provide you with care that is focused on the health of the mother as well as the baby. Meet the staff here.
Breastfeeding Support
The benefits of breastfeeding are numerous. Though breastfeeding is completely natural, many new mothers have some difficulty getting started, which is why we are proud to offer lactation and breastfeeding support through a board-certified lactation consultant.
Security
We want you to have peace of mind, knowing that your baby's health and safety is our top priority. We also have advanced technology that automatically locks the doors if a baby gets too close to them without prior authorization.
