Whether you’re a first-time mother or a seasoned pro, having a baby is one of life’s greatest adventures. You deserve highly specialized care through every phase of your pregnancy. From preconception and prenatal care to labor and delivery, our board-certified obstetricians are with you every step of the way to help ensure a healthy pregnancy.

If your pregnancy is high risk, we work closely with the physicians of the Maternal-Fetal Medicine Department at the Wexner Medical Center at Ohio State University to provide guidance and specialized care for you and your baby. That means you have access to nationally recognized, world-class care right here at home. 

Adena delivers the healthiest babies in the region, and we would love to help you welcome your bundle of joy into the world. 

Services and Treatments

We offer services to help you throughout your entire pregnancy and beyond, which includes:

Screenings

Early prenatal care is your first step towards a successful pregnancy. That includes important screenings for RH compatibility, rubella (German measles), syphilis, hepatitis and HIV, all of which could put your baby at risk. Our prenatal care team can also help you manage chronic conditions, like diabetes, asthma, epilepsy, or high blood pressure. We will also work closely with you to identify any health or lifestyle issues that could complicate your pregnancy.

Adena’s Baby-Centered Recovery Program

If you or a loved one are pregnant and dependent on opiates, Adena’s Baby-Centered Recovery Program can provide  prenatal and postpartum support and treatment for a healthy pregnancy.

Our program strives to help by:

  • Encouraging social support in a non-judgmental, supportive and fun group atmosphere
  • Improving your confidence to make healthier decisions 
  • Increasing breastfeeding rates
  • Linking you to other community services
  • Lowering your chances of having a preterm baby
  • Offering medically assisted treatment
  • Providing education about pregnancy and addiction

Women meet with a provider once a week in a group setting to talk about treatment concerns and check progress. These meetings are held once a week for two hours at Adena Regional Medical Center’s Women and Children’s Center, located just inside the north entrance. Licensed social workers and certified lactation providers are also available to offer support.

The program also requires participation in a partial detox program, including monitored Subutex maintenance and random drug screenings.

To learn more, please call 740-779-7440.

Your Delivery Experience

We deliver more babies than any other hospital in the region, and Adena’s Women and Children’s Center was designed with you in mind. We combine comfort with the latest technology to offer a birthing experience like no other. Our facility offers 24/7 care with both physicians and midwives, and includes:

  • Five homelike suites for labor, delivery and recovery – all in one place. Your suite has a private bathroom, state-of-the-art equipment for you and your newborn, as well as a recliner so your loved one can stay throughout your labor and delivery.
  • Two dedicated surgical suites for cesarean sections. All areas are staffed by the same friendly faces that have taken care of you during your labor.
  • A baby viewing area so new infants can be seen while keeping our moms and babies safe.

This area is equipped to provide exceptional care for infants born as early as 32 weeks. The nursery includes bedside monitoring and specialized cribs for premature infants to  provide a warm, healing, low-stress experience.
