Grand Junction Hospital Makes List of Best Maternity Hospitals
A Grand Junction hospital has made Newsweek's list of the 'Best Maternity Hospitals in the Nation.' This hospital is one of 217 U.S. hospitals that made the list.
We recently featured this hospital in Grand Junction for delivering the most babies in Western Colorado. This Grand Junction hospital delivered 1,337 babies in 2020 and now we're featuring them again for something else baby-related. St. Mary's Medical Center in Grand Junction was recently named one of the best maternity hospitals in the nation.

There are over 6,000 hospitals in the United States, but only 217 hospitals in 36 states made the Newsweek list of 'Best Maternity Hospitals in the Nation', including St. Mary's in Grand Junction. According to St. Mary's Medical Center's Facebook post in order the make the list the hospital:
...must demonstrate excellence in maternity care by meeting a number of standards including low rates of C-sections, episiotomies, and early elective deliveries.
