The Kemptville District Hospital says its systems have been restored after a pair of power outages knocked out the facility’s phones, internet and electronic records system on Tuesday. In a post to social media, the hospital says a Code Grey issued earlier in the afternoon remains in place as it works to ensure it can operate normally. Shortly after 3 p.m., the hospital had asked non-urgent patients to seek alternative treatment options as it worked through the outages and reverted to paper systems. Ambulances were also being redirected to other hospitals. According to Hydro One, one of the power outages impacted about 7,303 customers in the Kemptville area. Power has since been restored for the vast majority of customers.
