Andrews Women's Hospital (AWH) at Baylor Scott & White All Saints Medical Center - Fort Worth is a complete healthcare destination designed specifically for women. AWH delivers more than 6,000 babies annually- a volume greater than any other facility in Tarrant County and second highest in the DFW metroplex.
AWH includes a labor and delivery unit that offers high-risk pregnancy care and a Level III neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) designed to care for the tiniest infants, as well as those born with serious medical challenges. In 2022, four additional labor and delivery rooms were added to AWH to continue to meet the growing maternal needs of our population while still providing a warm and family-focused environment for expecting mothers.
In addition to caring for women in childbearing years, AWH also offers comprehensive women’s surgical services. On average, more than 200 surgical procedures are performed by our expert surgeons each month for gynecological, breast and urological purposes, including many minimally invasive robotic surgeries.
Andrews Women’s Hospital (AWH) has a national reputation for expertise in high-risk pregnancy and childbirth. In 2021, AWH became the first hospital in Tarrant County designated as a Level IV maternal care center, the highest possible designation by the Texas Department of State Health Services.
The Level IV designation was given after a rigorous two-day onsite survey of medical staff and facilities during which AWH was recognized for its expertise in providing comprehensive care through a cadre of medical, maternal, surgical specialists and behavioral health specialists available for round-the-clock support.
This designation underscores the facility’s ability to handle the most complex cases. During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Delta variant was found to cause serious and sometimes fatal illness in unvaccinated pregnant women. This caused AWH to experience a surge in the number of patients transferred from across the region who needed the care that only a Level IV maternal care center could provide.
In addition to providing care for the most critically ill maternal patients, AWH also operates a unique Obstetric Emergency Room 24 hours a day for mothers experiencing emergencies during pregnancy.
