maternity hospitals
Where babies arrive
Maternity hospitals are medical facilities specializing in pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum care.
They provide obstetric services including labor and delivery, prenatal monitoring, and newborn care.
Some are standalone institutions; others are wings or departments within general hospitals.
The term sometimes appears in historical contexts, as many such facilities have been absorbed into larger hospital systems.
