Grady Maternity Ward Closing July 31

OhioHealth is shutting down its inpatient maternity ward at Grady Memorial Hospital by July 31st, citing declining birth volumes—under 10% of local babies born there last year—and shifting patient trends toward larger hospitals with advanced neonatal care. The move cuts 37 jobs, including management and advanced practice roles, though OhioHealth is working to reassign affected staff. Prenatal, postnatal, and gynecological care remain available at other OhioHealth locations, and the emergency department at Grady will still handle deliveries in urgent cases.
