Bustamante Hospital suspends elective surgeries

Surgical services at the Bustamante Hospital for Children are on pause after a recent power surge affected its operating theatres.
 
The hospital's management says all elective surgical procedures have been cancelled and only urgent and emergency surgeries are being accommodated at this time.
 
Additionally, non-emergency procedures will be rescheduled and where appropriate, urgent cases will be transferred to nearby facilities.
 
The management of the children's hospital says a technical team is working to resolve the issue and restore full functionality to the affected operating theatres.
 
The hospital says patients and their families who have upcoming surgeries scheduled in the affected theatres will be contacted directly to provide updates and rescheduling options.
