Fire damaged Odessa hospital center for women and infants
An electrical surge and oxygen fueled a fire at Odessa Medical Center Hospital's Center for Women and Infants. The center, opened in 2012 with 12 labor and delivery rooms and 30 private neonatal units, is closed for repairs but no one was harmed. Patients were safely relocated to Odessa Regional Medical Center as staff cooperated to minimize disruption. The two hospitals collaborated to protect patients, with a hopeful path to reopening and a backdrop of a strong downtown medical scene.
