Unfortunately, at this time we are not offering in-person tours at Clovis Community or Community Regional hospitals. Please check out the childbirth class "Introduction: Take a Tour of Our Birthing Centers" for virtual tours.

It’s important to not bring too many things. You will probably be in our care for a day or two, so there will be plenty of time for your support network to bring additional items to make you more comfortable during your stay and things you’ll need when you leave the hospital.

A few things you might want to consider bringing include:

• Non-slip slippers
• Non-refrigerated food for a support person
• Music that is soothing to you
• A pair of socks
• Focal point to use during contractions
• Hand-held massager
• Phone charger
• Toiletries for mom and support person
• Bathrobe
• Change of clothes for support person
• Going-home clothes for mom and baby
• Change for vending machines
• Watch or clock with second hand
• Lip balm

Yes, we encourage all parents-to-be to preregister. This will be one less thing you need to do when you check-in on the big day. You can preregister online with your MyChart account.

Community Regional

Labor & Deliver at Community Regional has its own registration desk for obstetrics patients. Please come visit us on the third floor at the birthing center registration desk.

Please see below for age and area restrictions:

Whether it’s scheduled or recommended during labor, take comfort in knowing our hospitals have dedicated surgical suites with state-of-the-art operating rooms, imaging and diagnostic equipment and expert providers.

We encourage you to keep your baby in the room with you to be held "skin-to-skin." This time spent together helps with bonding and breastfeeding, and helps you to be more comfortable in caring for your baby's needs. You’ll learn your baby's cues more quickly and get to understand what they want.

Many new moms also sleep better when their baby is in the room. Your baby will be with you continuously during the day and at night unless they need to be in the newborn nursery for medical reasons.

Visitor guidelines depend on location/area and age of visitor:

It's quite common and natural for moms and babies to struggle with breastfeeding at first. This is no reason for concern. Both Clovis Community and Community Regional offer inpatient lactation consultants who visit every patient following their birth experience to provide private, bedside breastfeeding education and assistance.

And regardless of where your baby was born, the Mother’s Resource Center at Community Regional provides board-certified lactation consultants, classes, equipment and more on an outpatient basis.

This is your special moment and we're here to make it everything you ever imagined it would be. We fully encourage you to speak with your provider about how you'd like to deliver. The hospital supports patient requests, but it's ultimately up to the plan that you and your provider develop together. 

Yes. We carefully monitor all individuals who enter and exit our labor and delivery suites, postpartum unit, nursery care unit, intermediate, and neonatal intensive care units.

Immediately after delivery, matching identification bands are attached to your newborn, you and your partner/spouse. Footprints are made and photographs of your infant are taken for identification purposes. An electronic security tag is also applied to your baby that alarms if your baby is moved from designated safe zones, automatically alerting the security team.

Additionally, all staff are specially trained in monitoring processes to ensure we know the exact location of your baby in the unit at all times.

Like hospitals nationwide, we have a security plan in place, educate staff and monitor effectiveness through frequent drills to ensure the security of newborns and children in the hospital.

On-site interpreters as well as our state-of-the-art Video Interpreter Service provide a live, two-way video chat, offering translation services for more than 40 languages, available 24/7.
