that in most “western” hospitals, the professionals assisting with births and taking care of sick people are not the same people.
There's probably maternity departments and doctors / nurses usually specialize, so I agree that the medical professionals assisting child birth and taking care of sick people are probably not the same people. In our case, we have a Women's Hospital (located right next to the Children's Hospital, with buildings connected) dedicated for pregnancy care, child birth, and post birth care. So, the professionals assisting births are not even in the same hospital as the professionals helping sick people.
