Twelve out of the sixteen labor rooms were renovated in 2021. This unit also has six triage rooms, three ORs and five antepartum rooms.

VHC Health is Kaiser Permanentes premier center for their high-risk patient population, including antepartum patients, high-risk vaginal, external cephalic versions (where breech babies are rotated to vertex in hopes of having a vaginal delivery), TOLACs (Trial of Labor after Cesarean birth) and cesarean deliveries. Minor GYN cases such as D&Cs, LEEPS, IUD insertion/removal are also performed on week days.

What makes the Labor and Delivery unit unique is the fantastic doctor/nurse relationship, great teamwork and having an OR/GYN team that works alongside labor nurses to support the unit. Members of this team describe the unit as "feels like family" and mentioned they have a very supportive leadership team who jumps in, scrubs up, and helps when needed.
