Babies will no longer be delivered at Bluffton Hospital.
Instead, labor and delivery services, which moved to Findlay in December due to the covid-19 pandemic, will remain in Findlay.
The announcement made today, May 7, from Blanchard Valley Health System follows:
Blanchard Valley Health System (BVHS) will maintain the consolidation of labor and delivery services to the Findlay main campus. Bluffton Hospital labor and delivery services temporarily closed in December of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
