A back-up generator is said to have failed to start, leaving medical machines unable to function in the maternity ward, including the special care unit.
A major incident has been declared due to 'severe flooding' in the basement of the women's and children's unit at Blackpool Victoria Hospital. Mothers and their newborn babies reportedly had to be moved to different sections of the hospital as chief executive Trish Armstrong-Child said the flooding led to a 'loss of power and network access to the entire building'.
'After speaking with staff and overhearing rushed working contractors, the conclusion appears to be that an overspill of sewage has come into contact with the electrical distribution board for a large section of the hospital. 'It just looked like complete chaos.'
