Prenatal Care/Labor/Delivery


    Cherry County Clinic offers comprehensive obstetrical care from start to finish. We also welcome patients from other communities. The staff at CCH will assist you throughout your pregnancy, from your first lab work or ultrasound to your delivery and discharge.

    As you prepare for the birth of your child, we encourage you to attend our prenatal classes for expecting parents. You can sign up at: Prenatal Classes. You can also contact our Director of Nursing to schedule a tour of the labor room, nursery, and patient rooms. For any financial questions, please reach out to our billing department.

    When it’s time to welcome your newborn, we will be ready to support you through labor, whether you choose induction, vaginal birth, or cesarean delivery. Our nursing staff promotes "Rooming In," which allows you to keep your newborn in your room with you as much as you desire. We also encourage breastfeeding, and our nursing staff is here to assist you and answer any questions you may have.

    Frequently Asked Questions:

    Q: Does my delivery need to be pre-certified with my insurance company?
    A: Quite possibly! Many insurance companies require precertification for delivery services. It is always a good idea to contact your insurance company to obtain precertification for your delivery. Additionally, be sure to document the following details: the phone number you called, the name of the representative you spoke with, the information they provided, and the date and time of the conversation.

    Q: Will my primary care physician deliver my child?
    A: Most likely! While there's no guarantee, physicians strive to deliver your child if you have received prenatal care from them.
