Maternity Services
If there is a baby in your future, FMC can help the entire family prepare for the childbirth. We provide one-to-one nursing care for mothers in labor, and we have lactation counselors on site to consult with new moms. Our labor and delivery suites are large, attractively decorated, and give the family space and privacy to bond with the newest member of the family. Tours of our suites are available by calling our childbirth educator at (740) 687-8218.
