Parkview Kosciusko Hospital (PKH) will expand services to Kosciusko County and surrounding-area residents with the opening of its Family Birthing Center on Tuesday, September 17.

The new, 11,391-square-foot PKH Family Birthing Center (FBC) features seven labor/delivery/recovery/ postpartum (LDRP) rooms as well as two triage rooms and a dedicated C-section suite. Having a well-equipped C-section suite in the unit enhances safety for patients and minimizes disruption in a family’s birthing experience.

Phillips, Hollan and Saylor also have photos on display elsewhere in the hospital.

“I am so impressed by the photos area residents have submitted to us for consideration,” said Scott Gabriel, market president, Parkview Health Northwest. “These beautiful images of Kosciusko County life contribute to the sense of peace and healing in our hospital. We kept the original submissions the photographers sent us for consideration prior to the opening of PKH, and as we were planning for the birthing center, we knew we wanted to display additional photos in the new space.”
