YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) - Yuma Regional Medical Center (YRMC) released a statement on Monday, May 9, regarding a recent cyberattack.

"We’re now moving to more normal operations, and we are working to reschedule select services and appointments as quickly as possible," was written in the statement.

YRMC shut down their systems for two weeks following a ransomware incident and continued to stay open using back-up processes.
