Srinagar: Reinforcing its commitment to safe motherhood and accessible maternity care, PARAS Health Srinagar is encouraging expectant mothers to consider normal delivery wherever medically appropriate, through specially designed maternity packages and comprehensive clinical support.
The initiative aims to promote natural childbirth, empower women with informed choices and ensure that mothers receive personalised care throughout pregnancy and delivery. With a focus on clinical expertise, regular antenatal monitoring and compassionate support, the hospital seeks to make childbirth a safe and reassuring experience for mothers and their families.
Dr Sadia, Senior Consultant, Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, PARAS Health Srinagar, said normal delivery remains a preferred option in uncomplicated pregnancies, provided there are no medical contraindications.
“Every pregnancy is unique, and the mode of delivery must always be determined by the mother’s health, the baby’s well-being and a thorough clinical assessment. Wherever medically appropriate, normal delivery offers several benefits, including a generally shorter recovery period, reduced surgical intervention and an earlier return to routine activities. Our priority is to counsel expectant mothers, address their concerns and ensure they receive the right medical support at every stage,” she said.
Dr Najma Saqib, Consultant, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, PARAS Health Srinagar, emphasised the importance of promoting normal deliveries while ensuring that high-risk pregnancies receive specialised medical attention.
“Normal delivery is a natural process that can offer several benefits to both mother and baby when the pregnancy is progressing without complications. However, every case requires careful assessment. High-risk pregnancies demand close monitoring, timely intervention and a well-coordinated medical approach to prevent complications. Our focus is to ensure that every woman receives individualised care, whether she is opting for a normal delivery or requires specialised management because of medical risks,” Dr Saqib said.
Dr Murtuza Habib, Facility Director, PARAS Health Srinagar, said the initiative reflects the hospital’s broader commitment to patient-centric, quality and affordable healthcare.
“Motherhood is one of life’s most important journeys, and every family deserves access to quality maternity services delivered with compassion, expertise and dignity. Through these special packages, we aim to make maternity care more accessible while encouraging normal deliveries wherever clinically suitable. The safety of both mother and child will always remain our foremost priority,” he said.
Seema Vig, Senior Vice President and Regional Director, PARAS Health, said strengthening maternal healthcare and creating positive birthing experiences remain important organisational priorities.
“At PARAS Health, we believe that quality healthcare must bring together clinical excellence, accessibility and compassion. Promoting normal deliveries wherever medically advisable is an important step towards building a supportive maternity care ecosystem. We are committed to empowering women through informed choices, expert guidance and access to quality healthcare throughout their motherhood journey,” she said.
With experienced obstetric specialists, comprehensive maternity services, clinical monitoring and dedicated support for high-risk pregnancies, PARAS Health Srinagar aims to strengthen maternal healthcare and encourage expectant parents to make informed decisions.
The special maternity packages are part of the hospital’s continued efforts to make quality maternity care more accessible while ensuring that every mother receives care tailored to her individual needs.
