Fraser Health says the Surrey Memorial Hospital will be closed for at least a few more days.
All all elective, scheduled and non urgent operations, including obstetrical, diagnostic imaging and other procedures are cancelled at the Jim Pattison Outpatient Care and Surgery Centre until further notice.
Crews stopped the flooding at Surrey Memorial Hospital earlier today and the clean up continues.
Fraser Health spokeswoman Tasleem Juma says staff are working with BC Ambulance to get patients to other hospitals.
"However, if other patients are arriving at the emergency room who are unaware of the situation, they will be sent to the Jim Pattison Centre and then will be triaged from there."
This, after construction crews broke a water main. Non-essential services, including diagnostic imaging, are being postponed.
The shutdown at Surrey Memorial is already having an impact on other hospitals.
CKNW's Jordan Armstrong is in New Westminster: "I'm here at Royal Columbian Hospital in New Westminster, and the action, of course, is at Surrey Memorial, but you can certainly tell something not all quite right with the Fraser Health Authority right now, because the lineup outside Royal Columbian Hospital, of ambulances and people coming in taxis is quite long, and all the ambulance bays appear full as well."
