We are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience. To do so, we are actively working with consultants to update the website by increasing its accessibility and usability by persons who use assistive technologies
such as automated tools, keyboard-only navigation, and screen readers.
We are working to have the website conform to the relevant standards of the Section 508 Web Accessibility Standards developed by the United States Access Board, as
well as the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1. These standards and guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities. We believe that conformance with these standards and
guidelines will help make the website more user friendly for all people.
Our efforts are ongoing. While we strive to have the website adhere to these guidelines and standards, it is not always possible to do so in all areas of the website.
If, at any time, you have specific questions or concerns about the accessibility of any particular webpage, please contact WebsiteAccess@tenethealth.com so that we may be of assistance.
Each year, about 3,000 new lives join the “Born at JFK” community. So we pride ourselves on both a caring and experienced staff that focuses
on the health of you and your baby – throughout your pregnancy, during your delivery and once you’re at home.
Our services include:
Mother-baby couplet care, in which you and your baby remain together while you’re at the hospital
Maternal Child Education, which includes classes in baby care and lactation
Mother-baby couplet care
Following your baby’s birth, you can take advantage of our mother-baby couplet care —a postpartum level of care that allows you and your
newborn to remain together. This allows you to learn your baby’s special feeding cues.
During this time, lactation specialists and nursing staff will be available to help with any problems you might have with breastfeeding.
Family Portrait
Professional photographers from Our 365 also are available to come to your room to photograph you and your newborn – either alone or with other family members. Our 365 provides access to a website with a unique password
that you select. This allows friends and family who cannot visit you an opportunity to see the newest member of the family.
