Hospitals in Augusta

Prospective birth mothers know better than most how scary an unplanned pregnancy can be. One of the most important decisions a potential birth mother makes is where to deliver her baby. The hospital she chooses to deliver at, and the doctor who will be present during the delivery, should agree to respect a prospective birth mother’s hospital/birth plan before labor occurs. A hospital plan will be created by the prospective birth mother stating what she wants to happen at the birth of the baby and how placement will occur with the adoptive family.

American Adoptions can facilitate creating the hospital/birth plan and help a prospective birth mother to communicate her wishes to the prospective adoptive couple she has chosen. Here is a list of a few hospitals in the Augusta, GA area:
