Evacuation orders have not been issued yet
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Health First is evacuating Cape Canaveral Hospital in Cocoa Beach ahead of Hurricane Milton.
The city of Cocoa Beach made the announcement Tuesday afternoon on Facebook, noting there were no evacuation orders for the barrier islands yet.
The hospital said the move was out of an abundance of caution since Cocoa Beach could see 74 mph winds and heavy rainfall because of the storm.
Health First was already planning to close all of its outpatient facilities and services in Brevard County on Wednesday at 3 p.m. and reopen them on Friday after safety assessments.
