Under the terms of the agreement, physicians from the group will be staffed in the emergency room in the Women and Children’s Center at Kingwood Medical Center. They will provide a variety of services, including providing care to patients prior to the arrival of the patient’s primary physician, caring for high-risk pregnancy patients and delivering babies for patients that do not have an obstetrician, according to the article.

“The OB-GYN hospitalist program demonstrates Kingwood Medical Center’s commitment to quality of care and innovation,” said Christopher Glenn, MD, Ob Hospitalist team lead. “The program not only improves the quality of care for our patients, but also serves to continue the Kingwood Medical Center tradition of leading the way in the overall care of women.”
