We know what to anticipate and what to do to get the best possible outcome. Our physicians, midwives, nurses, and all of our team know how to take care of new moms and their babies. We listen to you and that's a big part of what we do. We know that each mom and baby is unique and we pay attention to what you are going through.

You have choices

Labor & Delivery at Intermountain Medical Center can facilitate a full range of delivery options, from low-risk natural to the highest risk. Everything is built on the idea of letting you choose the kind of delivery you want. Whether it's laboring in the tub, walking, or anything else, we try to follow your wishes as much as possible.

You and your family will have a spacious, homey, private environment

• The hospital's 18 delivery rooms are divided into three units of six rooms each. Each unit has its own comfortable family waiting area with full-length windows and spectacular views.
• There are three triage rooms large enough for quick deliveries and four operating rooms with pass-through windows into the newborn ICU.
• The delivery rooms are furnished in rich natural maple and have a warm, homey feeling. Each room has everything you and your new baby will need, plus a fold-out sofa for another family member.
• Your delivery room has a unique new design. One side of your bed is arranged for family members who are present for the new arrival. The other side of the bed is set up for doctors, nurses, and their equipment.
• Each room is equipped with a warmer and bassinet for your baby. A wall unit of equipment is out of the way when it's not needed, but it's there if a baby needs monitoring or other care. The rooms also have special lighting that can be brightened to a focused surgical light or dimmed, depending on your needs.
