St. Peter’s Hospital in Albany is cleaning up after flooding from a burst pipe.
The pipe burst just after 2 a.m. Monday, the hospital told NewsChannel 13.
Damage was contained solely to the medical imaging department, they said.
It affected their medical imaging equipment, and ambulance diversions were initiated to other hospitals temporarily, they said.
The impact is largely on ambulance traffic, and patients are still being cared for, the hospital said.
The emergency department never closed and is accepting walk-in patients, they said.
The hospital is working to reroute services and clean the area so it can return to normal operations as soon as possible.
