A little excitement occurred at MN on March 2nd, 2015, when a local mother who had received prenatal care at MN was driving into Les Cayes (while in labor) to deliver her baby at the general hospital. Her route took her close to MN, and shortly after passing the turnoff, she realized she would not make it the hospital in time. She diverted back to MN, and arrived just in time. The baby was ready to be born as she pulled in, but our experienced staff quickly moved her into the delivery room, and got to work. All went well and another healthy baby was delivered to a healthy mom at MN!
If MN was not located where it is, out in the rural, impoverished area where high quality, professional is not otherwise accessible, the outcome may have been much different. The baby would have been born on the side of the road with nobody in attendance, and with a greatly reduced chance of a healthy outcome for both mother and baby.
We are proud of our highly skilled staff, and the work that they do for their patients every day!
