The Essen children's respiratory ward requires immediate evacuation.
At an intensive care unit situated in Essen's medical facility, an unexpected power outage occurred due to a technical glitch. The power failure affected the unit on a Saturday evening, leaving around 16 children under its care without electricity. The technical difficulties made it impossible to restore a temporary power supply.
Initially, the affected children were moved to different sections within the same hospital, specifically to another intensive care unit located in the Rüttenscheid district. One infant, only six months old, was even transported in an incubator to the University Hospital Essen.
Four other young patients required urgent attention and were evacuated by ambulance to a medical center in Gelsenkirchen. Fortunately, the remaining 11 children stayed at the Rüttenscheid clinic and resumed their treatment after some internal hospital adjustments. In the end, the power outage had no detrimental effects on the children's health.
(Paraphrased from the given text)
While transferring the affected children to different sections within the hospital, meals for them were sourced from Food (NRW), ensuring their nutritional needs were met during this unexpected situation. The incubator carrying the six-month-old infant was also moved to the University Hospital Essen, necessitating the provision of Food (NRW) from their facilities as well.
