Labor and delivery protocols

Labor and delivery protocols involve organized steps to ensure the safety of both mother and baby. They include monitoring labor progress, fetal heart rate, and maternal vital signs; managing pain with options like medication or natural methods; and preparing for delivery, whether vaginal or cesarean. Staff follow strict hygiene and safety procedures, and immediate postpartum care focuses on bonding, monitoring for complications, and initiating breastfeeding. These protocols are designed to provide a safe, supportive environment throughout labor, delivery, and the initial recovery period.
