We, the Lisa Ross Birth and Women's Center, are a not-for-profit corporation providing a unique system of women's health care to promote wellness, personal empowerment, and family involvement in the birth process as well as other women's health outcomes. We embody the Birth Center concept, designed to provide access to superior quality, highly personalized, and lower cost care.
It is our mission to expand our practice, in conjunction with other community organizations to:
Close the gap in health disparity for women who are vulnerable to poor health outcomes,
Provide a safe environment for excellent outcomes for women, mothers and babies.
We also believe that:
- Childbearing is a normal healthy event rarely requiring medical intervention.
- The woman has opportunities and responsibilities in decision making regarding her care.
- A woman's family and friends are an integral part of her care.
- Education is the basis of responsible decision making.
- Adequate time with the health care provider is essential to meeting individual client needs.
- Fostering the growth of midwifery can best be realized by providing a site for clinical education.
- All women deserve equal treatment, regardless of ethnic, racial, or cultural differences, education, or socioeconomic status.
