The Grand Junction Daily Sentinel reports:
On Tuesday morning, Family Health West Hospital in Fruita discovered that it was the target of a cyberattack.
While the cyberattack forced the hospital to shut down its electronic systems, a hospital spokesperson said that patient care has not been impacted, nor do they expect it will be.
