Support People and Visitors

The birth of a baby is an exciting time for new mothers and their support people, and the maternity center staff at Atlantic Health System wants to make it as safe and comfortable as possible for both of you.

Support Person Amenities

Your partner or designated support person must stay with you at all times. They can take advantage of pull-out beds in the private rooms at Chilton Medical Center, Morristown Medical Center and Overlook Medical Center, or may use the sleeping chairs available at Newton Medical Center. We ask that appropriate clothing be worn at all times.

Partners are welcome to complimentary snacks – juice, soda, crackers, cookies, cereal, coffee and tea – in the labor and delivery and mother baby units at Chilton, Morristown and Overlook medical centers. At Newton Medical Center, complimentary breakfast, lunch and dinner will be provided for support people.

Other amenities include:

• ATMs are available throughout the hospitals.
  
• Cell phones are allowed in your room.
• Wireless internet access is available.
