Our History:

Inpatient women’s & children’s services (obstetric and pediatric, including labor and delivery, NICU and PICU) services were rapidly moved from our Academic Medical Center to our St. Mary Medical Center in April 2020 to allow room for additional intensive care capacity with critical care specialists during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Women’s & Children’s services will remain at the St. Mary Medical Center and recently expanded additional areas including a beautifully renovated postpartum floor and a pediatric specialty clinic.
