Liberty Hospital

Liberty Hospital stated it was the target of a cyberattack, but it is unsure of how long it will take for it to recover.

An employee who talked with KCTV5 revealed that the hospital still uses paper charts.

Liberty Hospital answered questions from KCTV5 on these issues.

The hospital's management asserts that staff members receive training on such as part of patient protocols for downtime.

Patients reported that everything was OK during their visit, despite the fact that this significant cyberattack appears to jeopardise Liberty Hospital patient information.
