High Risk Pregnancy
Trained, Compassionate Doctors Ready for the Unexpected
If you have diabetes, a heart condition, hypertension or other special health condition, you are at a higher risk of developing complications before, during and after pregnancy. At Carondelet, you have access to specialized care for pregnancies that are at risk for maternal, fetal or obstetrical complications.
Our highly skilled perinatologists (doctors who specialize in high-risk pregnancies) will work closely with your nurses and doctor to help you have a healthy pregnancy and safe delivery.
If you have complications and your baby needs intensive care, we offer a Certified Level II neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) at Carondelet St. Joseph’s Hospital. We can provide the high level of care required for high-risk mothers and newborns. Our board-certified neonatologists are available 24 hours a day to meet the needs of our smallest patients.
