Introduction to Livasa's maternity and childcare philosophy

Livasa Hospitals takes a patient-centered approach to maternal and child health that combines medical excellence, evidence-based maternity services, and family-focused care. Our philosophy emphasizes three pillars: safety, personalized care, and continuity across pregnancy, delivery and the newborn period. In Punjab, families seek hospitals that can manage routine pregnancies and complex, high-risk scenarios; Livasa is designed to meet both needs through a multidisciplinary model where obstetrics, neonatology, pediatric care and supportive services work together.

Safety begins with standardized clinical pathways—antenatal risk screening, clear labor and delivery protocols, access to emergency obstetrics 24/7, and a fully staffed neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Personalization includes prenatal classes, individualized birth plans, respectful maternity care, and lactation counselling so new parents feel confident. Continuity means outpatient antenatal clinics, a smooth transition to postpartum support, and pediatric follow-up at our well-baby clinics.

Nationally and globally, improving maternal and newborn outcomes remains a priority. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), maternal and neonatal mortality have declined over decades, but gaps persist in access and quality. In India, sustained efforts have reduced the maternal mortality ratio substantially; yet families in Punjab still value hospitals that combine modern technology with compassionate bedside care. Livasa Hospitals—NABH accredited and functioning as a multi-specialty hospital—focuses on measurable quality indicators to reduce maternal and neonatal complications while promoting positive birth experiences.


Comprehensive maternity services at Livasa

Livasa’s maternity services encompass the entire spectrum of obstetrics and gynecology care, from preconception counseling and prenatal care to advanced obstetric interventions. Our obstetrics and gynecology teams include experienced consultants, staff obstetricians, anesthesiologists skilled in obstetric analgesia, and dedicated midwives and nurses trained in neonatal care. Services are structured to support routine and complex pregnancies with consistent quality at Livasa Mohali, Livasa Amritsar, Livasa Hoshiarpur and Livasa Khanna.

Key components of our maternity services include:

  • Prenatal care and antenatal monitoring: Regular antenatal visits that monitor maternal health, fetal growth scans, and screening for gestational diabetes, hypertension, anemia and infections.
  • Antenatal classes and prenatal education: Structured prenatal classes in Mohali and other centers teach breathing techniques, labor expectations, newborn care basics and breastfeeding skills to prepare families for childbirth.
  • High-risk pregnancy clinics: For mothers with pre-existing conditions (diabetes, hypertension, heart disease), multiple pregnancies, or fetal anomalies, our multidisciplinary high-risk pregnancy program coordinates care among specialists.
  • Diagnostic services: Advanced ultrasound (including anomaly scans), fetal Doppler studies, non-stress tests (NST), and access to diagnostic labs for timely decision-making.
  • Preconception counseling and family health: Advice on optimizing maternal health before conception, folic acid, immunizations and genetic counseling when indicated.

Emphasis on antenatal care in Punjab is critical: regular monitoring reduces emergencies and prepares mothers for timely delivery. At Livasa Hospitals, antenatal care in Mohali and our other centres is available with flexible appointment options and clear patient education materials to help families make informed choices about pregnancy care.


Delivery services and labor management

Delivery is a pivotal event; Livasa’s labor and delivery services prioritize safe, evidence-based management and respectful care. Our labor wards are designed for family-friendly support while ensuring immediate access to emergency obstetrics. We provide continuous fetal monitoring, skilled midwifery-led labor support, and seamless escalation to obstetricians and anesthesiologists if intervention is required.

Delivery options offered:

  • Normal vaginal delivery with personalized pain management, supportive positioning, and immediate skin-to-skin contact where clinically appropriate.
  • Assisted vaginal delivery (forceps or vacuum) for appropriate clinical indications with experienced operators.
  • Cesarean section (C-section) for obstetric indications; clear counseling about reasons and expected recovery.
  • Vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC) protocols for eligible patients who prefer trial of labor under close monitoring.
  • Pain management during labor: from non-pharmacological strategies to epidural analgesia administered by specialists in obstetric anesthesia.

Below is a comparison of common delivery methods to help families understand benefits and recovery expectations:

Delivery type Benefits Recovery time
Normal vaginal delivery Faster maternal recovery, lower infection risk, earlier breastfeeding A few days inpatient, weeks for full recovery
Assisted vaginal delivery (forceps/vacuum) Avoids C-section in selected situations, shortens second stage Similar to vaginal delivery with focused pelvic recovery
Planned/emergency C-section Life-saving in placenta, fetal distress, malpresentation, or maternal indications Longer: 4–6 weeks for many activities; inpatient stay 3–5 days commonly

Livasa emphasizes informed consent and shared decision-making. Families receive clear counseling about indications for interventions, expected maternal and neonatal outcomes, and pain management choices. For childbirth in Mohali and neighboring areas, Livasa Hospitals Mohali provides readily available obstetric emergency coverage and a labor ward designed for privacy, safety and family support.


High-risk pregnancy care and neonatal intensive care

High-risk pregnancies require timely interventions and a coordinated team approach. Livasa Hospitals operates dedicated high-risk pregnancy clinics staffed by maternal-fetal medicine specialists, cardiologists (if required), endocrinologists for gestational diabetes management, and experienced neonatologists. These clinics assess risks, create individualized monitoring plans and coordinate delivery in an environment prepared to manage complications.

Common high-risk conditions we manage:

  • Pre-eclampsia and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy
  • Gestational diabetes and pre-existing diabetes
  • Cardiac disease in pregnancy
  • Multiple pregnancies (twins, triplets)
  • Fetal growth restriction and congenital anomalies

The neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) is a critical component of newborn care services in Punjab. Livasa's NICU is equipped for comprehensive neonatal support:

  • 24/7 neonatal ICU staffing: Board-certified neonatologists and trained neonatal nurses ensure round-the-clock care.
  • Advanced support: High-flow oxygen, mechanical ventilation, CPAP, thermal care, phototherapy and parenteral nutrition.
  • Newborn screening and hearing tests: Early screening for metabolic disorders, congenital hypothyroidism and universal newborn hearing screening where indicated.
  • Family-integrated care: Emphasis on parental presence, kangaroo mother care and guided breastfeeding even in the NICU setting where feasible.

Globally, neonatal mortality remains an important focus; WHO estimates millions of newborn deaths occur annually from preventable causes. In India, neonatal mortality has steadily declined with improved facility-based deliveries and NICU access. At Livasa Hospitals in Mohali and other centers, the combination of prenatal risk management and a capable NICU improves survival and long-term outcomes for neonates requiring intensive care.


Newborn and pediatric care: from first breath to childhood

Newborn care at Livasa does not end at delivery. Our pediatric services provide a continuum of care including initial stabilization, routine newborn assessments, immunization guidance and ongoing pediatric follow-up. Pediatricians trained in neonatal procedures are present in the delivery area to assess the newborn and determine if further observation or NICU admission is necessary.

Key newborn care services:

  • Immediate newborn stabilization and APGAR assessment at one and five minutes and beyond.
  • Newborn screening tests in Punjab including metabolic screening, blood spot tests and hearing screening as recommended.
  • Vaccination and immunization advice with a clear schedule for BCG, OPV, Hepatitis B and subsequent vaccines per national guidelines.
  • Well-baby clinic and pediatric follow-up for growth monitoring, developmental surveillance and timely immunizations.
  • Pediatric specialties: Access to pediatric cardiology, pediatric surgery, pediatric neurology and other subspecialties for complex child health needs.

For families in Mohali, Amritsar, Hoshiarpur or Khanna, having a pediatrician available from delivery through early childhood gives peace of mind. Early immunization protects infants against life-threatening infections: India’s immunization programs have made major strides, and hospitals like Livasa reinforce those gains by ensuring timely vaccine administration and parental education. Additionally, well-baby clinics focus on nutrition counseling, growth milestones, and early detection of developmental delays to connect families with interventions early when they matter most.


Postnatal care, breastfeeding support and family health

Postpartum care is a critical phase for both mother and baby. Livasa Hospitals provides structured postnatal support that addresses physical recovery, mental health, lactation, family planning and newborn care. A comprehensive discharge plan ensures families receive the support they need once they return home.

Core postnatal services include:

  • Medical assessment of mother: Evaluation for postpartum hemorrhage, wound healing (for C-section or episiotomy), blood pressure and metabolic issues.
  • Breastfeeding counselling and lactation consultants: One-on-one sessions to establish breastfeeding, address latch problems, milk supply and provide pumping guidance. Livasa offers trained lactation consultants at our Mohali center and other locations.
  • Mental health screening: Early screening for postpartum depression and anxiety with referral pathways for counseling and psychiatric care when needed.
  • Family planning and contraceptive counseling: Personalized advice for timing of future pregnancies and contraceptive options.
  • Home-care guidance and follow-up: Nutrition advice, wound care instructions and scheduled postnatal visits or teleconsultations.

Breastfeeding has proven benefits for infant health and maternal well-being. Our breastfeeding services emphasize skin-to-skin contact immediately after delivery, rooming-in practices, and practical help with positioning and feeding. For working mothers in Punjab, Livasa also provides guidance on expressing and storing breastmilk safely.


Quality, accreditation and technology at Livasa

Quality assurance is central to delivering safe maternity and neonatal care. Livasa Hospitals is proud to be a NABH accredited hospital, which means clinical processes, infection control, patient safety, and documentation meet nationally recognized standards. Accreditation brings a systematic approach to continuous improvement and transparency in outcomes and patient experience.

Important quality and technology features include:

  • Multidisciplinary teams: Obstetrics, neonatology, anesthesiology, pediatrics and specialty consultants collaborate daily.
  • Advanced diagnostics: High-resolution ultrasound, fetal monitoring, laboratory services and neonatal screening tests ensure timely clinical decisions.
  • State-of-the-art NICU: Equipment for respiratory support, thermal regulation and advanced monitoring that conform to neonatal best practices.
  • Emergency obstetric services 24/7: For safe delivery care in acute scenarios such as postpartum hemorrhage, eclampsia or severe fetal distress.
  • Electronic medical records and protocols: Standardized checklists and digital records support continuity of care across Livasa Mohali, Amritsar, Hoshiarpur and Khanna.

These systems help reduce complications and improve maternal and neonatal outcomes. Families choosing Livasa Hospitals for maternity services in Punjab benefit from a hospital-wide commitment to quality and patient safety that is visible in both clinical care and customer experience.


Costs, maternity packages and comparisons

Cost transparency is important when planning for childbirth. Livasa Hospitals offers clearly defined maternity packages with options for normal delivery, C-section, and high-risk delivery management. Package prices can vary by center (Mohali, Amritsar, Hoshiarpur, Khanna), room category, and whether complications or NICU care are needed. The following table provides a general comparison of typical delivery cost categories to help families plan—please contact +91 80788 80788 or visit our booking page for exact, up-to-date pricing.

Procedure type Typical inclusions Estimated cost range (Punjab)
Normal vaginal delivery package Room charges (ward/private), routine meds, neonatal check, discharge Economy to premium: variable; contact Livasa for specific package details
Cesarean delivery package Surgical charges, anesthesia, OT, post-op care, neonatal check Higher than normal delivery; varies by room type and clinical complexity
High-risk pregnancy / NICU care Specialist consultations, extended NICU care, advanced monitoring Costs depend on duration and intensity of care; individualized billing

A few practical points about cost:

  • Public data suggest private hospitals in India often charge more for C-sections than vaginal births; Livasa strives for clinical appropriateness rather than financial incentive when recommending interventions.
  • Insurance and cashless facility options are available for eligible patients—please confirm with our billing team at the time of admission.
  • Transparent package breakdowns are provided before elective admissions to help families plan financially.

Frequently asked questions and practical tips for parents

Expectant parents often have common questions. Below are practical answers and tips drawn from our clinical teams at Livasa Hospitals:

  • When should I register at the hospital? Ideally in the first trimester for comprehensive antenatal care. Early registration helps schedule scans, tests and risk assessment.
  • How do I know if my pregnancy is high-risk? Factors include maternal age (>35), chronic medical conditions, multiple pregnancy, prior obstetric complications and fetal anomalies. Our high-risk clinic provides individual assessment and a care plan.
  • What should I pack for delivery? Essentials for you and baby, ID, insurance documents, antenatal records, a change of clothes, breastfeeding supplies. Our admission team provides a packing checklist.
  • How soon can I breastfeed after delivery? When clinically possible, breastfeeding within the first hour supports bonding and lactation. Lactation consultants at Livasa assist mothers immediately after birth.
  • What immunizations does my newborn need? At birth, BCG and Hepatitis B are common; subsequent vaccines follow the national immunization schedule. Livasa pediatricians provide a personalized vaccination plan in Mohali and other centres.

Tip: Keep emergency contact numbers handy and arrange transportation for timely arrival at the hospital when labor begins. For families in Punjab, proximity to a NABH accredited facility like Livasa Mohali or Amritsar can be reassuring in unplanned situations.
