As Hurricane Milton made landfall and swept across Florida, one of the state’s major hospital systems welcomed 67 babies into the world.

AdventHealth for Women, which offers women’s health care services at locations across Central Florida, staffed hundreds of team members, including nurses, physicians and specialists, during the height of the hurricane.

The staff worked through the night to care for delivering parents and their little ones, according to the hospital.

“I’m so grateful for the delivering parents who entrusted us to take care of them and their families during the hurricane, and to all the team members who worked through the night to ensure our community was cared for,” Kristen Toth, vice president of AdventHealth for Women, told Fox News Digital via email.

“To be able to serve as a source of support and calm and witness 67 children come into the world during such a frightening time — it’s a testament to the strength of the human spirit.”
