Welcome WVU Berkeley Medical Center in Martinsburg, WV to the OBHG family with a ramp start and a fulltime program scheduled for the end of Q1 2024.
Hospital leadership partnered with OBHG to support the community OBs and nursing staff, reduce burnout, and improve work life balance. The hospital has recently renovated their OB triage area, which they are interested in converting to an OBED. They are also interested in enhancing the culture of safety on the unit.
WVU Berkeley Medical Center currently sees approximately 1,050 annual deliveries and 2,600 annual OB triage visits. This partnership is OBHG’s first with WVU Medicine and our first in West Virginia.
This is the 30th program to start in 2023! OBHG looks forward to partnering WVU Berkeley Medical Center and positively impacting the lives of their physicians, women, and babies in their community.
