Franciscan Health Mooresville Family Birth Center Earns State Recognition

INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana - The Indiana State Department of Health (ISDH) has announced Obstetric and Neonatal Level II certification of Franciscan Health Mooresville, signifying the steps that the hospital has taken to provide specialty care to patients with more complex maternal and fetal conditions and complications. 

The hospital was notified of its designation after satisfying the requirements for an Obstetric Level of Care II and Neonatal Level of Care II facility. This designation requires a high level of quality improvement and education of all members of the hospital team.

The ISDH certification is effective for three years and will be posted on the premises to be viewed by patients.

"Our team provides high quality, compassionate care and I am proud that the Indiana State Department of Health has recognized our work with this certification of excellence," said Angela Bratina, RN, administrative director for Women's and Children's for Franciscan Health Central Indiana. "We will continue to work together to give our moms and babies the best outcomes possible."

Indiana's Perinatal Levels of Care rating system was signed into law in 2018 by Gov. Eric Holcomb as part of the state's effort to reduce infant mortality. The system designates four levels of care to provide patients with information to help decide the best hospital for their delivery.

Franciscan Health Mooresville Family Birth Center offers a wide range of comprehensive services to residents of Morgan County.
