Hospital Bed Rest
Sometimes, pregnancy complications will require complete bed rest and close monitoring of both you and baby at the hospital.
For moms-to-be, it means putting everything aside as you protect your health and the health of your unborn baby.
EvergreenHealth's antepartum program helps by providing a comfortable, nurturing and homelike place where your bed rest care plan is tailored around what works for you and your family.
Comfort and Care
Our private rooms are more like a cozy patient condo, where you can bring in family photos, your own pillows and other personal comfort items.
There's an entertainment center, a daybed for overnight guests and plenty of storage space.
There's even a washer and dryer nearby so you can wear your own clothing, because simply not wearing a hospital gown can make you feel better.
Care is delivered according to your rhythms, not some arbitrary hospital schedule. If you're not an early riser, you won't be awakened for medications and breakfast at 7 a.m.
Our concierge style meal service lets you select what you'd like to eat and when you'd like to have your meal delivered. Guests can order a meal for an additional fee and have it delivered at the same time so you can dine together.
If you want some private time, we'll post a note on the door so staff won't barge in without calling first.
Expert Monitoring For You and Baby
Both you and baby are monitored by EvergreenHealth's perinatologists – specialists in maternal-fetal medicine.
Other members of your care team may include:
If you are expecting twins, triplets or more, our Multiples Program will help you prepare for the practical and emotional realities of having more than one baby.
Delivery
At EvergreenHealth, pregnancy complications that put you on bed rest don't automatically result in a Cesarean delivery.
If a natural birth is your wish, we'll do our best to make it happen.
Should a Cesarean be necessary, we have dedicated C-section operating rooms at the ready.
Should your baby need extra care after birth, our Neonatal Intensive Care Nursery and our highly skilled neonatologists provide the highest level of care available for babies as tiny as 24 weeks.
