Good Samaritan Hospital - Kearney, NE
While our recovery efforts from the flash flooding early Saturday morning continue on a nearly round-the-clock basis, our services for patients have all been been restored. We're overwhelmingly grateful to each person and entity who has assisted us in this effort.It's hard to put into words exactly what Saturday's conditions were like and just how seriously our facility was impacted. And to say that we're emotional about the whole situation is a bit of an understatement. This security camera footage is just a glimpse into the series of events that unfolded Saturday. Again, we're so relieved that no patients, staff or physicians were injured in this incident.
