Your delivery day

Parking is available for expectant mothers at Moreno Valley Medical Center.

You can park near the hospital entrance during business hours Monday through Friday, or near the emergency entrance after business hours when you arrive for your baby’s delivery. After you get settled in, your partner or support person will need to move your car to visitor parking. You can leave your car in short-term parking for up to 30 minutes. If you need longer, just ask one of your care team members to notify security.

Go directly to Labor and delivery. During business hours Monday through Friday you can enter Labor and Delivery through the main hospital entrance. You can walk or use one of our stackable wheelchairs located at the hospital entrance. After-hours and weekend check-ins can be done through our Emergency Department.

Labor and delivery is located on the fourth floor where a receptionist is waiting to greet you for check-in.

When you arrive at the hospital, your labor pattern and baby will be monitored in a private labor observation room in the Labor and delivery department.

You are welcome to have one guest to support you here. When active labor is confirmed, you will be moved down the hall to your private labor room.

Your childbirth preferences plan

Your health and the safety of your baby are always our top priorities. Creating a birth plan is a great way to let your care team know your wishes. It’s not a contract, and you can change your plan at any time. If you haven’t made your birth plan yet, make one and share it with us at your next visit.

Photography

You’re welcome to photograph this memorable occasion! Please keep the following in mind:

• Handheld still photography is welcome.

• Handheld videotaping is allowed after the baby is born.

• Floor-mounted tripods are not permitted because they’re a tripping hazard.
  

When you have your baby at Kaiser Permanente, you may be surprised at how many people are there to support you — before, during, and after your delivery. We’ll all work together to help give you the happiest, healthiest birth day possible.

First few hours after delivery

Our labor, delivery, and recovery rooms are where you and your newborn will spend your first hours together. When your baby is born, your delivery team will come in to make sure he or she is thriving outside the womb. As long as you and your baby are doing well, you’ll stay together for the rest of your time in the hospital.

Family-Centered postpartum unit

After your initial skin-to-skin time, you’ll be moved to our Family-Centered postpartum unit.
