✨ Our First Baby of 2026 Has Arrived! ✨

Help us welcome Ajuaina Monique Ann, our very first baby born in 2026 🤍
Born on January 1, 2026, weighing 5 lbs 10 oz.

Proud parents Dajia and Doninque rang in the New Year in the most special way!

To celebrate this sweet milestone, Ajuaina and her family were gifted a bassinet filled with goodies along with gift cards generously donated by local businesses throughout our community. We are so grateful for the love and support that made this possible.

Whoville has officially taken over our OB unit!

This month’s Sunshine Board is extra special — featuring our very own team members as tiny Whos, because long ago a tiny Who… now delivers joy to you 💫

And of course, we couldn’t forget the cutest little Whos around! Our December babies have filled our halls with love, laughter, and just a little extra Christmas magic 🎁👶

After more than 12 years of dedicated service as an OB nurse, this weekend marked Emily’s final shift with our labor & delivery family. While we will miss her dearly, we are so excited for her next chapter as she begins teaching high school nursing students, shaping the future of healthcare just as she has impacted so many families here.

This weekend was made even more special as Emily had the incredible opportunity to deliver a baby alongside her mom, our amazing midwife Donna Bostick—a truly full-circle moment. Together, they welcomed sweet Waylon, born to mom Miklaye 💙

Emily, thank you for your compassion, dedication, and the countless lives you’ve touched over the past 12+ years. You leave big shoes to fill, but we know you’ll be just as incredible in the classroom. Wishing you all the best—once an OB nurse, always an OB nurse. 🌸

We are so incredibly grateful for the love and compassion of our community. One of our own community members transformed her wedding dress into beautiful gowns and tuxes for babies born sleeping—a gift that brings dignity, comfort, and love during the most tender moments. Thank you for continually surrounding our families and staff with kindness and support. Our small rural hospital is truly blessed by a big-hearted community.
