NORTH BERGEN, N.J. (AP) — Officials are evacuating 51 patients from Palisades Medical Center in North Bergen.

Some 32 medical-surgery patients, nine moms and their babies, and ten critical care patients are being taken to Hackensack University Medical Center in Hackensack.

Hospital officials say Palisades Medical Center sustained power problems due to the storm. Even though generator power was restored, officials feared the situation was too unstable.
