A maternity ward is a specialized area in a hospital where women receive care during pregnancy, childbirth, and the immediate postpartum period. It is equipped with medical staff, including obstetricians and nurses, who are trained to handle various aspects of maternal and newborn health. The ward typically includes delivery rooms, recovery areas, and rooms for new mothers and their babies. In a maternity ward, women can expect to receive prenatal care, labor support, and postnatal education. Facilities often provide amenities for family members, ensuring a supportive environment for new parents. The focus is on the health and well-being of both the mother and her newborn.
