deliver them for 30 years. Our experienced team is ready to pamper mom, dad and baby with the exceptional care and special
touches found only at a community hospital. Part of the world-renowned Duke University Health System, Durham Regional
Hospital delivers more than 2,000 babies each year. When you are here, you and your baby are our top priority.
Our labor and delivery nurses are some of the most experienced in the region; many have worked at Durham Regional Hospital
for more than 20 years. And, along with our nursery staff, they are experts in helping new moms learn how to care for their little
ones.
Our team prides itself on working to give you the birth experience you desire. Our comfortable delivery suites allow you to deliver
your baby in a cozy, home-like atmosphere. All labor and delivery rooms are newly renovated and private with TV, phone and
baby-care nook. Four of the eight rooms have whirlpool tubs. Babies can room-in with mom, or be cared for in the nursery.
We also offer a Level II Intensive Care Nursery staffed by Duke neonatologists for those infants who require a little extra
attention. The Special Care Nursery is staffed 24 hours a day by dedicated and experienced nurses and Duke neonatologists. Anesthesiologists and CRNAs are available 24 hours a day as needed.
