Preparing for Your Hospital Stay

As you prepare for the birth of your child, we would like to help you be as prepared as possible for your hospital stay. Taking the following steps will help the process go more quickly and smoothly.

First, at 28 weeks of your pregnancy, please complete and return the preregistration form found in your Partners in Care book. Or you may also complete this information using our online preregistration service. To preregister online, you will first need to get a password, which you can obtain by contacting the Admissions department at (320) 656-7052 or (800) 835-6614.

Second, at 30 weeks of your pregnancy, we invite you to:

  • Complete the Preferences for Your Birth Experience Plan form and bring with you at the time of delivery.
    Preferences for Your Birth Experience Plan form (download Microsoft Word document)
    Preferences for Your Birth Experience Plan form (download PDF)

  • Note: Normally we would invite you to schedule a tour of the Family Birthing Center. However, effective Oct. 27, 2009, we have put all tours on hold due to influenza concerns. We expect our tours to resume at a later date.

Finally, review your Partners in Care book. Information about labor, birth and what you can expect during your hospital stay, as well as the first weeks following your baby’s birth, is addressed in this book. The more information you have, the more able you will be to make the choices that are best for you and your baby.
