Family Health West Hospital in Fruita was targeted by a cyberattack on Tuesday, forcing a shutdown of its electronic systems. While patient care remained uninterrupted due to manual operations, the hospital confirmed no evidence of patient or employee data being lost or encrypted, with all attack attempts successfully blocked. The IT department is conducting forensic reviews and engaging external cybersecurity experts to verify system security before restoring operations. The incident was isolated, with no impact on other Mesa County hospitals. Proactive measures, such as disconnecting shared services (e.g., radiology), were taken by neighboring facilities like Community Hospital to prevent spread. The attack follows a prior disruption from the February 2024 Change Healthcare breach, which had caused prolonged financial losses for thousands of hospitals, including Family Health West. Recovery timelines and full threat elimination remain uncertain, with updates to be provided as needed. The hospital emphasized its focus on safeguarding sensitive patient, staff, and community data.
