Labor & Delivery
San Jacinto Methodist Hospital’s Labor and Delivery services were created for expectant mothers and families who want their baby’s birth to be a memorable experience. Each member of our nursing and medical staff is dedicated and provides excellent care for mothers and babies. Parents welcome their newest family member in a warm and supportive environment.
Our 14 labor and delivery suites are private and offer a home like environment. The suite also includes a chair with a pull out bed, cable television, and a Jacuzzi tub. Wireless internet is available if you bring your laptop computer.
Other labor and delivery services
- 3 triage beds
- 2 surgical suites are available for mothers who require a Cesarean section
- Recovery room
Visiting hours are from 7:00 am to 9:00 pm per day, but may be limited due to the patient’s condition. Family and friends may visit in your room or wait for your new arrival in our comfortable waiting room. Although family and visitors are encouraged to visit, hallway “waiting” is prohibited so that safe and confidential care can be provided for obstetrical patients. Snack machines are located on the second floor next to the cafeteria. A pull out bed is provided so that one adult visitor may remain overnight. No children are permitted to spend the night for safety concerns.
Mother and her support person are encouraged to bring items for comfort that may be helpful to use during labor and delivery. Beneficial items during labor may include massage items, portable MP3 or CD player or a favorite picture for a focal point. Each room has a rocker-glider chair which can be a helpful option to ease labor discomfort.
There is a Chapel located on the third floor of the hospital. Chaplain services are provided as needed. Please contact your nurse if you would like a visit.
The hospital gift shop is located on the first floor of the hospital. Gift items, baby clothing and seasonal merchandise are available. A variety of big brother and sister presents are also carried by the shop. Gift shop phone number: 281-420-8976.
