Centering Pregnancy Program: Empowering Women
At Grady in Atlanta, you can find the acclaimed Centering Pregnancy program. Offered exclusively at a select few specially accredited Georgia hospitals, this unique prenatal initiative brings together groups of expecting mothers with similar due dates. Program participants build bonds and knowledge through regular group meetings alongside regular prenatal visits and examinations. The focus? Learning to nurture both their own health and that of their babies.
Emory Nurse-Midwives: Culturally Responsive Care
Our Emory-affiliated nurse-midwives play a pivotal role in enhancing OB services' accessibility to ethnically and culturally diverse women. With antepartum practices established in community clinics, five neighborhood clinics for prenatal care, and main campus clinics at Grady Hospital, our nurse-midwifery service is a welcoming access point for prenatal services in this intricate health system.
Affiliations with the Center for Black Women's Wellness, Healthy Start Consortium, residential treatment centers for drug-addicted women, Latina community health centers, and school-based clinics enhance our network and commitment to community care.
Continuity of Care: A Nurse-Midwife’s Commitment
A defining trait of our practice is continuity. Our nurse-midwives manage their own caseloads, ensuring 24/7 availability to patients and families. No other service within our system provides such prompt and personal access to a primary care provider. Whether it's advice, support, or individualized education, a nurse-midwife stands ready to attend to your unique needs.
Our postpartum commitment extends beyond the delivery room, with daily clinical teaching rounds and a seamless return to the patient's primary midwife for aftercare.
