All tour registrations must be done online. You can register in your Englewood Health MyChart account or through our online scheduling platform.

No, there is no cost. When you register through MyChart, you may be asked your insurance information. This is a standard part of the MyChart scheduling system, but neither you nor your insurance company will be billed.
 

Tour appointments typically open two to three months in advance. We recommend booking at least three to four months before your due date, as appointments fill quickly.
 

Tour capacity is limited. Please check the online schedule for the most up-to-date availability. There is no wait list available, but full tours often open back up as people cancel.

You will visit the Labor and Delivery and Mother/Baby units, meet members of our team, and learn what to expect during your stay. Time will also be provided for questions.
 

Tours depend on unit activity and room availability. If a labor and delivery room is unavailable, the tour will continue in the Family Lounge, where our team will review what to expect and answer questions.
 

You do not need to bring any documentation or present a ticket. We recommend wearing comfortable shoes and bringing a bottle of water.

Your Stay in the Maternity Unit

|

We have 21 spacious private rooms and three semiprivate rooms (for two mothers) in our Mother/Baby Unit. Private rooms are assigned when available, but cannot be guaranteed. If you are in a semiprivate room and a private room opens up, we will make every attempt to move you or your roommate.
 

Please see our Visiting Hours and Policies for detailed information about visiting the maternity unit.
 

Up to two designated support persons are permitted with a laboring mother. You are welcome to have a doula (birth coach) act as one of your support people, but that person must not interfere with the delivery.
 

Yes. A professional photographer is available and will provide a complimentary photo as well as the option to purchase a package.
 

If you have further questions, please speak to your obstetrician. You can also send us a message.
