Bringing a tradition of careful and compassionate care to a hospital on the leading edge of medical science, certified nurse-midwives have joined the healthcare team at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center in Westwood.
UCLA nurse-midwives offer prenatal care, delivery and postpartum care, as well as breast-feeding consultation. They focus on meeting their patients' needs for physical care, emotional and social support, and health education throughout pregnancy, delivery, and the postpartum period.

The UCLA nurse-midwives hold graduate degrees in nursing and have been certified through examination by the American College of Nurse-Midwives. They work in consultation with physicians from UCLA's Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology.
