Admission process
Once your details have been registered and your room class has been declared, you will be accompanied to the room for preparation of mothers who are about to deliver in order for the necessary procedure to be followed.
After the procedure is completed, you will be led to the delivery room where only your spouse can be present (only in the case of normal delivery).
When delivery is completed, you remain in the recovery area and your newborn is examined by the pediatrician of the Hospital in the Neonatal Stabilization Area. Your baby and you remain in these areas for at least two hours for follow-up.
Subsequently, you are transferred to your hospital room, if your doctor allows it. Your newborn is transferred to the neonatal room on the same floor as your room or in your room, if you wish, unless of course medical supervision is required in the Intensive Care Unit of Neonates.
