BEMA had announced at 4 p.m. on Saturday that the situation was a “major power outage,” and said it has resulted in the closure and evacuation of some areas of the hospital. The emergency room was still open for walk-in patients, but all ambulances are being diverted to other hospitals.
The sewer line at the hospital also got backed up, causing some flooding. But that issue has also been fixed.
