Obstetrics patients will be moved to Central Maine Medical Center in Lewiston. Prenatal services will still be provided at Rumford, according to a Feb. 2 news release from Lewiston-based Central Maine Healthcare, of which the hospital is part.
The services are ending due to a number of factors, including a decline in birth rate as well as staff shortages among obstetricians and the need for a more consistent plan for women’s healthcare in the region, according to the release.
