This family made Ozarks Healthcare history with the arrival of their newborn this week! Braelynn Reese was the last baby to be born in the hospital’s former OB on December 28.
She is pictured here with her parents, Billy Reese and Dametria Edwards, in the new Women’s Center. Ozarks Healthcare sent them home with a “welcome wagon” filled with a car seat, diapers, books, and more.
“We are so proud to have helped welcome Braelynn to the world during this historical week for our medical system,” said hospital officials.
