How does Pregnancy Care at OCH work?

• Your family doctor at One Community Health provides prenatal services, taking care of you and your baby before and after the delivery. All our family doctors provide prenatal services, taking care of you and your baby before and after the delivery. Within that team, we have a smaller group of excellent obstetric physicians who can deliver your baby at Providence Hood River Memorial Hospital, our partner hospital. Each of our doctors has years of experience delivering babies in the Gorge. Most of your visits will be with your doctor of choice. We will also make sure you have the chance to meet our other doctors, as they may help with delivering your baby.

• A perinatal Community Health Worker works with you throughout your pregnancy to answer questions, give timely support, and make sure you get the care you need when you need it. Many people who go through this program come away feeling a special, unforgettable bond with their doctor and their perinatal community health worker.
