Question

Translating "Labor and Delivery" (as a department of the hospital)

Answer 1

Labor and delivery (department):

Área de trabajo de parto y alumbramiento.

                  or

Área de trabajo de parto y expulsión.

The name depends on the country.

Answer 2

Hello JT. The anwers you have been getting show the importance of context: are you referring to labor and/or delivery, the actions involved in birth, or to the area of the hospital designated for that purpose?

Here are some possible definitions, compiling the answers you already got:

Labor: Trabajo de Parto

Delivery: Parto / Dar a Luz

Labor / Delivery Area of the hospital: Maternidad (the Hospital wing), Sala de Parto (Delivey Room), Sala de Trabajo or Sala de Pre-parto (Labor Room).

Answer 3

Hmmm, maternidad?

Answer 4

Sala de partos?

Answer 5

Parto might be another possibility as it seems to refer to both labor and delivery (dar la luz). Partera (midwife).
