Laborists are OB/GYN hospitalists whose presence improves patient safety and outcomes by ensuring a doctor experienced in delivering babies is physically present to work with a hospital’s maternity team. Niagara Falls Memorial partnered with Women & Children’s Hospital in 2015 to add this special kind of physician expertise to its labor and delivery services.
