Deluxe Hydrotherapy Labor Tub

Labor Tub

Sierra Vista Regional Medical Center is giving pregnant mothers another option when it comes to pain management. Hydrotherapy labor tubs utilize the soothing properties of warm water immersion to relax the patient and to help ease patient discomfort and anxiety. Soaking in a warm tub has been shown to be an effective way to work with contractions and ease back pain during labor. The water allows the patient to be buoyant, relaxing her body and helping her labor to progress.

Unlike inflatable tubs used in other facilities, this permanent tub is ergonomically designed to support a patient's back, while allowing for complete access to the mother. The depth of the tub provides total immersion of the patient, while hand and foot grips give bracing and support. There are also three removable doors for easy entry and exit of the tub and seating for patient and partner.

Special Celebration Dinner

To celebrate the birth of your newborn baby, you and your coach are invited to have a quiet dinner before you leave the hospital. This meal is selected from a specially prepared menu which includes filet mignon, shrimp scampi and vegetarian pasta. It replaces the standard hospital meal and includes an elegant table cloth.

High Risk Capabilities

Nobody expects difficulties in pregnancy or childbirth, but the Birth Center team of specialists at Sierra Vista is trained in the early detection of complications and can take steps to avoid them before they become problems. In addition, our two operating rooms, located within the labor and delivery unit, allow physicians to perform cesarean sections quickly and efficiently. Anesthesiologists are on-call 24 hours a day, seven days a week to provide pain management to laboring mothers.

VBAC

The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists now encourages women who have had a prior cesarean section to try natural childbirth. If you and your physician decide that a VBAC delivery is an option for your birth plan, Sierra Vista is fully equipped to accommodate your choice. Anesthesiologists are on-site during all VBAC labors.

Infant Security

Your infant's protection is a priority at Sierra Vista. In order to ensure the safety of your newborn, the hospital utilizes a highly sophisticated infant security system.
