In response to the global Microsoft outage that has impacted many organizations, Catholic Health activated our internal incident command center earlier this morning to safeguard operations within our facilities. We continue to provide high quality, safe patient care and all our facilities, including medical offices, remain open.

While we have experienced some communication delays and have instituted down-time safety procedures, our IT team is working to bring back up any affected systems. Emergency and critical care have not been impacted and non-urgent appointments and surgeries may be running on a slightly delayed schedule.
