Valleywise Health temporarily reached ICU capacity this week

Valleywise Health hit ICU capacity this week and had to find "not normal" places for additional patients who required that level of care.

On Wednesday, Valleywise Health Chief Clinical Officer Dr. Michael White said capacity had improved and three ICU beds were available.

It's a number that is constantly changing.

However, on Tuesday, Dr. White said their ICU hit capacity.

Six additional patients requiring that level of care had to be placed elsewhere in the hospital.
