The blackout lasted nearly eight hours.
Eight long hours of anguish during which communication was made very difficult between the departments of the Pasteur 2 hospital center in Nice.
So much time when it was no longer possible to reach the SAMU call center.
And for good reason, from 3 a.m. until 8:30 a.m. this Friday, the CHU would have been the victim of a general breakdown of its computer system.
“In any case, this is what the management is telling us at this time”
, comments to Le
Figaro
Michel Fuentes, of the Force Ouvrière (FO) Health union.
To overcome the communication difficulties, particularly with the firefighters, an emergency doctor immediately came to provide the interface between the two services.
A crisis unit was also set up this Friday morning between the hospital management and the doctors.

On April 19, 2021, Pasteur 2 had already suffered a failure in its computer system.
“Perhaps we should have put money into the computer rather than into a logo”,

“serious consequences for patients”

Force Ouvrière Santé, which had called for the holding of a Health, Safety and Working Conditions Committee (CHSCT) in 2021, announces this time that it will seize the mayor of Nice as well as the prefect.
