MIAMI (CBSMiami) – A nursing home in Dania Beach had to be evacuated after the facility lost power on Friday afternoon.
Broward Sheriff’s Fire & Rescue units were at The Residence, located in the 150 block of Stirling Road helping to move residents.
BSO said the facility has 113 residents and lost power at around 12:30 p.m. to part of the building.
Fire-Rescue began moving patients that did not have air to the area that did have air.
About 13 residents who are COVID positive and had been in isolation had to be transferred to area hospitals.
At least one patient was in distress, according to authorities.
Power was restored to the facility later in the afternoon.
Officials said the power outage was caused by a tree that fell on power lines.
In 2017, Hurricane Irma knocked out the electricity at Rehabilitation Center at Hollywood Hills, and authorities attributed as many as 12 resident deaths to sweltering conditions in the building.
The deaths and an evacuation of the facility drew national media coverage.
The deaths prompted the Florida Legislature to require nursing homes to have backup power.
