Today we went down to St. Tomas Hospital. We took a tour of the hospital and spent time in the labor and delivery room. This was a great experience. I got see a birth and go to the nursery and see all the new little babies! I feel like I am a little more ahead of everyone else in the class because I got to have some hands on experience with pediatrics and OB. It was interesting to see the difference in the health care systems. Women do not have the option here to have a private room. You walk in to the labor room and you see around thirty beds filled with women that are in labor. The men are not part of the birthing process. It was a good day and we saw and learned a lot.
