New Online Web Nursery provided by Owatonna Hospital

OWATONNA, Minn. 02/14/2008--Friends and relatives no longer have to wait on the postal service to see “new arrivals” born at Owatonna Hospital thanks to a new online web nursery offered by Owatonna Hospital. Every baby page features the newborn’s photo, birth statistics, information about the origin of the baby’s name, interesting “this day in history” information and more.

Each baby page also includes a baby book that allows parents to email the news and print the pages for keepsakes, as well as allows visitors to sign the baby book and write online notes of congratulations.

“This new web feature gives parents the option to announce the birth of their child to family and friends worldwide within hours of the birth,” said Molly Urness, RN and Birth Center manager at Owatonna Hospital. To ensure patient privacy, no last names appear on the website.

To view the online web nursery, visit Owatonna Hospital's website at Owatonna Hospital Online Web Nursery.
