Aside from the general destruction caused by the massive thunderstorm in Porto Alegre, Hospital das Clinicas had to close both its emergency room and intensive care unit due to excessive flooding and leaks within the hospital itself!
Flooding outside of the ICU
Leaky ceiling dripping into buckets in the acute area of the emergency department

Acute side of the emergency department closed due to flooding
Front door to the emergency department locked with a bench in front of it. This was a bit of a shock when we arrived for work that day!
