Nemocnice Nymburk

Nemocnice Nymburk, also known as Nymburk Hospital, is a healthcare facility located in Czechia. The organization provides medical services to patients. Its core functions include delivering emergency treatment and basic medical care. The hospital is recognized locally by both its Czech name and its English alias. It serves the community within the region where it is situated.

On February 3, 2025, Nemocnice Nymburk experienced a serious cyberattack that paralyzed its information systems. The attack forced the hospital to shift into emergency mode to maintain essential services. Although emergency and basic care continued, the disruption led to significantly longer waiting times for patients. Additionally, the cyber incident disabled the hospital's card payment capabilities. The hospital director noted that the scale of the attack complicated predictions about when normal operations could resume.

In response to the crisis, the hospital coordinated with regional emergency services to ensure patient safety. It also worked closely with neighboring hospitals to share resources and manage patient flow. Outpatient physicians were consulted to maintain continuity of care for non‑emergency cases. These collaborative efforts aimed to mitigate the impact of the IT outage on healthcare delivery. At the time of reporting, the hospital had not yet restored full normal operations.
