Maternity Services in BC Hospitals
Your family physician, registered midwife or obstetrician will have privileges at one or more hospitals with maternity services. This means that the hospital has granted your care provider permission to care for you at that facility. If your care provider has privileges at more than one hospital, you may be able to select among facilities.
Your choice of hospital may also depend on the level of care you and your baby require. Talk to your care provider about the options that are available to you.
