Labor & Delivery

State-of-the-Art Delivery Center in the Big Horn Basin

Choosing where to have your baby is an important decision. The Women's Health and Nursery Department at Cody Regional Health is a unique combination of modern technology and all the comforts of home. Our experienced staff will give you and your baby the compassionate, caring touch you both deserve. Through our exceptional care, we help expectant parents feel confident as the big day begins.

Maternity Suites

Each of our spacious maternity suites is designed to make you feel comfortable and relaxed throughout your entire stay. The wonderful view of the Cody mountains and skies combined with warm, home-like decor allow for a cozy family environment perfectly suited for welcoming your new addition. Our patient-directed visitation hours allow you to choose when you would like to invite your friends and family to meet your new little one.

Pampering

We partner with the Cody Regional Health massage therapy services to provide a complimentary post-delivery chair massage as a benefit for our patients. You may also elect to take a relaxing soak in our Jacuzzi tub, or utilize aromatherapy in your room. We believe our new moms should get the pampering they deserve!
