The team of physicians, nurses, neonatologist, and neonatal nurse practitioners gather together with you to provide the highest level of care in a warm environment.

In Labor?

If you believe you are in labor, contact your OB/GYN who may tell you to come to the Weber Maternity unit to be checked.

Our experienced obstetrician/gynecologists at Sturdy Health OB/GYN and Women's Health - Attleboro and Sturdy Health OB/GYN and Women's Health - Plainville provide exceptional care during your entire pregnancy journey. From pre-pregnancy planning and conceiving to prenatal care, we work closely with you to provide the support and care you need.

Your birth experience at Sturdy Memorial Hospital is individual to you! If a natural birth is your goal, we can support you with hydrotherapy, intermittent monitoring, telemetry, or nitrous oxide. Our team is trained in Spinning Babies, and we support your physiologic birth. We have an anesthesiologist on-call 24 hours a day available for labor support. Families can also be comforted to know Sturdy Memorial Hospital is prepared to care for your newborn if additional care is needed. We provide you with the experts in neonatal care through our relationship with Women & Infants Hospital which provides quick access to neonatal nurse practitioners or a neonatologist 24 hours a day.

Sturdy Health is "Birthing Friendly"

Birthing Friendly Designation

"Birthing-Friendly" is the first-ever CMS designation to describe high-quality maternity care. To earn the designation, hospitals and health systems report their progress on CMS's Maternal Morbidity Structural Measure to the Hospital Inpatient Quality Reporting (IQR) Program. The measure identifies whether a hospital or health system has participated in a statewide or national perinatal quality improvement collaborative program and implemented evidence-based quality interventions in hospital settings to improve maternal health.

I have been a patient at OB/GYN Associates of Attleboro since my teens, so it was my natural choice for obstetric care
