Respected delivery
In Sant Pau we know that the delivery is a unique moment and that is why we ensure that the process is a positive experience. Following WHO recommendations, we routinely avoid unnecessary interventions —such as artificial water bag rupture, oxytocin administration, or episiotomy—and follow all clinical practice guidelines and protocols on care at birth based on scientific evidence.
We have zero tolerance with any practice of obstetric violence, and always make the decisions in a shared and informed way with you. To give birth is a physiological process by which your body is born ready, and we will help to make it a special and unforgettable experience.
For this reason, the Birth Plan is an essential document. In it, your preferences will be collected during the childbirth process. It will be the guide on which our professionals will base to attend you and your baby and know your expectations. This will allow us to offer you complete and fully personalized attention.
