Public Health Medical Director Richard Brostrom said CHC did admit women in their late pregnancies who checked in before the typhoon.
He said some patients who were on life support and needed electricity also checked in.
“We just issued the advisory for the high risk groups as a routine precautionary measure, and we were glad the community especially the high risk groups took heed,” Brostrom said.
Public Health earlier urged all women with a gestational age of 36 weeks and above to self monitor and prepare for the possibility for early labor.
The department said storms have been known to make pregnant women give birth earlier than their expected due date.
Everything is back to normal at the hospital now, Brostrom said.
CHC was prepared for an upsurge of patients during the typhoon, he added.
