UPDATE: Cyber Incident Progress

2023-05-11

Cornwall Community Hospital (CCH) is pleased to report that it has made significant progress since identifying the cyber incident on April 11th.

CCH has largely now returned to its standard approach to patient care, with clinical activity volumes (emergency, inpatient, surgical, etc.) back to accustomed levels. While there have been delays with respect to patient access to some services (particularly with respect to Diagnostic Imaging, such as X-rays, CT-scans, MRIs, etc.), we generally expect improvement in access to these services within the next week. We are also continuing to manage some support functions, including payroll, staff scheduling, etc., through alternative solutions for the time being and will provide further updates on this front when they become available.

We thank you all for your patience and support. We are working full throttle with our partners to minimize any inconvenience these issues may cause and ensure that CCH’s return to standard operations resumes as soon as possible.

Please continue to visit the CCH website (www.cornwallhospital.ca) or the hospital’s social media channels to stay informed.
