GO San Francisco General Hospital! Read more about how SFGH is leading the state in birth outcomes. It might be surprising, then, that according to data compiled by the state, (San Francisco General) is probably the safest place in California to have a baby. Not the most luxurious, certainly — the labor and delivery ward in the famously dilapidated complex of buildings is strictly industrial. Since the hospital doesn’t accept money from formula companies — the usual providers of baby swag — mothers go home with blankets and baby caps made by volunteers from the Baby Love Ministry at Grace Episcopal Church in Napa, and diaper bags filled with breast pads the hospital purchased using money from a grant. While San Francisco General’s maternity ward does not provide luxury, it does something else very well: evidence-based medicine.
