Dr. Jesus Delgado Memorial Hospital, more popularly
known as the Delgado Clinic, has been championing mother care for 70 years with
a record of more than a hundred thousand babies being delivered to date. From
normal births to high-risk complications, the Delgado Clinic has taken an extra
measure of love and personalized care as all mothers do to make sure their
child not only lives, but flourishes.
True to its legacy, the Delgado Clinic introduces the
Optimal Birth Outcome (OBO) program, a free three-day workshop that serves as
the ultimate care, support and education system for moms-to-be designed to
minimize or even eliminate congenital defect, premature birth, new-born
infections, and other chronic complications for both mothers and children.
An Optimal Birth Outcome (OBO) is achieved when there is
zero or reduced complications. The OBO program does this by providing
added-value services in support of the foundational needs of every individual
mother. No matter what level of physical or emotional health they mother comes
in with, the goal of the program is to provide the best possible childbearing
outcome for each mother and child.
The OBO program focuses on five aspects of health that
are scientifically proven to have wide ranging effects for every pregnancy.
• Nutrition
and Wellness- Delgado Clinic has localized the latest scientific nutrition
information to support reduced negative birth outcomes, achieve optimum growth
and development of the baby and provide a stable environment from which both
mother and child may spring from.
• Biotransformation
& Elimination of Toxicants- The advent of urbanization has surrounded
mothers with multiple toxic elements that are often missed and unassisted.
Pulling from the latest scientific evidence the OBO program equips mothers with
the practical knowledge of avoiding and substituting today’s most commonly used
harmful chemicals.
• Stress
Management- Stress during pregnancy affects a child’s developing brain,
metabolic system and body. Through the OBO stress mangament workshop mothers
are taught the multiple ways of managing stress and its link to long term
maternal and child diseases.
• Exercise
in Pregnancy - Physical exercise is an activity that improves or maintains
physical fitness and overall health and wellness. Exercise during pregnancy is
important and can help with some common discomforts of pregnancy and support
the body for labor, delivery and life after delivery.
• Sleep
Management- Establishing good sleep patterns during pregnancy is physically,
psychologically and emotionally important. A good sleep pattern plays an
important role in the preparation for birth, and protects the baby from the
psychological stresses and strains of pregnancy.
Empowered by Johnson & Johnson, the First Time Mom
Unit (FTMU) facility that caters to first time moms in their medical and
hospital needs, and the Delgado Clinic’s Optimal Birth Outcome (OBO) program
aims to deliver enriching workshops for the mother not only to give birth to a
healthy baby, but also to be holistically healthy before, during, and after the
pregnancy.
By signing onto the First Time Mom Unit (FTMU) and
Optimal Birth Outcome (OBO) workshops, moms-to-be also become eligible to join
on the “Bet on Your D-Day.” The exclusive contest created by the Delgado Clinic
to give OBO participants more than just an educational reward but a chance to
win discounts on their maternity packages and other amazing prizes.
The OBO program is scheduled to launch on January 20
followed by the succeeding workshops on January 27 and February 3, 2018 at the
Delgado Clinic.
