We offer private and spacious "home-like" suites and modified rooming in for your family’s comfort. You have access to high-speed internet access and a TV and DVD player in your suite. We also offer newborn photography to help you capture and treasure those first few moments of your baby’s life.

At Flaget Memorial Hospital, we offer maternity education classes to help you prepare for childbirth and parenting. Our classes cover topics ranging from what to expect when delivering at our birthing center, to breathing and relaxation methods, and breastfeeding. We also discuss baby care, how to prepare for your labor and delivery, communication and parenting styles, plus other important topics to keep your family unit strong through the upcoming changes.

Classes are taught by certified childbirth and lactation educators. We recommend registration early in your pregnancy, as classes fill quickly. For more information, call (502) 350-5350.
