Yesterday, December 3rd, The Birth Center in Bryn Mawr, welcomed their 10,000th baby! The Birth Center is the first licensed birth center in Pennsylvania and one of the oldest continually operating birth centers in the United States. TBC’s team of certified nurse-midwives (CNMs), nurse-practitioners (NPs) and registered nurses (RNs) have been delivering this model of care to our clients and families for 36 years. Demand for their service is growing; Ten years ago TBC assisted in the birth of 350 babies; in 2014 that has increased to 550 babies.
They plan to expand their services in the future:
While TBC is well-known and regarded for its maternity and breastfeeding care and services, many people do not realize that our services expand well beyond that, into well-woman care throughout the lifecycle. Over the next decade, TBC seeks to expand greater access to our model of care, including more grants to those who are uninsured or underinsured, expanding breast-feeding services and support groups to all new mothers and families, and building a stronger voice - in government and in the community - on behalf of the healthcare needs of all women and families.
