With A Birth, Elk Regional Says Goodbye to Former Maternity Unit

Gavin Paul Aul was the last baby born in the former Maternity Unit at Elk Regional Health Center.

Born on June 14 at 2:10 p.m., Gavin weighed 7 pounds, 4 ounces and was 22 inches long. Gavin is pictured here with his mother, Kaitlin Aul of St. Marys, and Laura Lorenzo, RN, of the Health Center’s Maternity Unit.

Gavin received a gift basket from the Maternity Unit nurses and a box of newborn diapers from Elk Regional Health Center. Elk Regional’s new eight-bed Maternity Unit began accepting patients on June 19.
