A New Beginning

Welcome to Family Centered Care

When you arrive at the Family Centered Care Unit, you and your family will be greeted by a mother-baby nurse. The nurse’s goal is to help you recover from the birth, assist with feedings, and provide education about post-delivery and newborn care. Each FCC room is equipped with an individual temperature control, television, and phone. It also has a daybed for your support person and a bassinet with all of the supplies needed to care for your baby.

COMMUNICATION You may use the telephone in your room any

time during the day or night. • Dial “9” to get an outside line.

• To allow you to rest, no incoming calls will come through between 9 p.m. and 9 a.m. • You may use your cellphone. • We cannot charge any long-distance calls to your hospital bill. • Please use a calling card if you wish to call outside the Atlanta, Cherokee, or Forsyth areas.

Main Hospital Numbers: • Atlanta: 404.851.8000 • Forsyth: 770.844.3200 • Cherokee: 770.224.1000
