San Francisco General Hospital and Trauma Center

Birth Center: Other Resources

The birth center uses a holistic approach when caring for mothers and their families. We are aware there may be other needs that accompany the birth experience.

• Our mothers have access to social workers, public health nurses, and psychiatric services if necessary.
• Each of our moms receives one home visit from the county public health nurse.

As a part of a major metropolitan hospital our patients have access to:

• Tuberculosis services
• Women Infants and Children program (WIC)
• HIV BAPAC (Bay Area Perinatal AIDS Center)
• Ophthalmology services
• Medical clinics.

All of these services are on the hospitals' campus.
