The competence of midwives includes the independent care of a physiological birth. Studies show that a birth in a birthing centre is as safe for healthy women with uncomplicated pregnancies as a hospital birth. In the birthing centre, you will receive individual 1:1 care during childbirth. This means that your midwife is there for you at all times and does not attend to any other births at the same time. This allows us to quickly recognise any deviations from the normal course of labor. If you or your child require additional support such as medication or medical interventions during childbirth, the transfer to Zollikerberg Hospital or another nearby hospital will be initiated. If your child needs support after the birth, additional assistance from the hospital will be requested after the primary care provided by the midwife. Our midwife team is regularly trained for out-of-hospital emergencies, and the birthing center is equipped with emergency medications and the necessary infrastructure.
