Prenatal Services
Having a baby is a joyous and fulfilling event in your life. However it can be overwhelming at times. To help you prepare for childbirth, Palmer Community Health offers Prenatal Classes for you and your labor partner so the two of you can truly share this experience. Please contact us early in your pregnancy and we will sign you up for the prenatal education class. We offer one-on-one classes for you and your labor partner. Classes can be held at the Oelwein and West Union locations and there are no costs for the class.
Topics Covered Include:
- Signs and symptoms of pre-term labor
- Common discomfort of pregnancy
- Labor and Delivery
- Breastfeeding
- Infant care
- Proper Nutrition & Healthy Choices
- Car seat education
No matter where you are delivering or who your doctor is, you and your labor partner are invited to attend. The class is available only to Fayette County residents. Call Palmer Community Health at 563-422-6267 or 1-800-335-0711 to find a time that fits for you!
Palmer Community Health also works directly with Parent Share and Support and Palmer Lutheran Health Center to offer assistance to parents, such as car seat checks, parenting classes and assistance vouchers.
