The Stork Resort
What could be better than bringing a new life into the world? That’s easy – a new life into the world at SouthCrest Hospital!
The staff members at SouthCrest Hospital’s Stork Resort feel privileged to share this extraordinary event with you and your family. We do all we can to make you feel as comfortable and “at home” as we possibly can. From the moment you enter our doors, our staff’s goal is to provide outstanding, personal care for you, your baby and your family.
And it gets better! Not only will you and your baby receive first-rate care at SouthCrest, but your surroundings will be more reminiscent of a hotel, than of a hospital. At The Stork Resort, nothing is too good for new parents and their precious newborns! We do our best to establish memories to last a lifetime. We think you will agree SouthCrest is the ideal place to be pampered as you start this wonderful new chapter in your family’s life.
SouthCrest’s exclusive Stork Resort was specially designed to meet your every need. The elegant room décor and special amenities create an atmosphere that is second to none.
But, don’t let our crown moldings and beautiful hardwood floors fool you! Should you or your baby need it, the latest in high-tech medical equipment is immediately on hand. And our Special Care Nursery is just down the hall for babies who are premature or in need of extra care and attention.
When it comes to individualized attention and personalized care, the staff members at The Stork Resort are professionals. Our dedication to patients is evident throughout our impressive facility. Which brings us to another important point: You wouldn't want to share your hotel room with a stranger, would you? So, why share your hospital room - especially at a time as personal as bringing a new life into the world?
Providing elegant, all-private rooms is just another way our staff at SouthCrest shows patients they are our top priority. As far as we are concerned, each baby born at SouthCrest is the first baby born. We never lose sight of the miracle of birth and our vital role in making the experience as smooth and pleasant as possible.
