Womens Neonatal Services

Welcome to the Women’s Care Unit at Rochester General Hospital where we are proud to provide support, education and personalized attention to the women and families we serve across the life continuum. 

Whether in the relaxed, home-like atmosphere of our birthing suites, the newly constructed 4-bed triage unit attached to our labor/delivery area, the state of the art Level II Special Care Nursery or the cheery, newly renovated private rooms on our post-surgical/Women’s Care wing, our patients can be confident of receiving the best possible care by our outstanding, recently Magnet recognized and awarded nursing care team.  We are located on the 3rd floor of the hospital, in an electronically secured area, allowing us to provide our families with added comfort and peace of mind.  

The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology offers a broad range of general and subspecialty services to women of all ages. Our facilities include a newly renovated Twig Birthing Center with 16 LDRP (Labor, Delivery, Recovery, Postpartum) rooms and 18 special care rooms for postpartum/antepartum patients and for women undergoing minor obstetrical or gynecological procedures. Rochester General is the site of 2,500 births and more than 2,400 gynecological surgery procedures each year. The Hospital also has a 12-bed Special Care Nursery.
