Ambulances were being diverted from Signature Healthcare Brockton Hospital Monday as the Massachusetts facility dealt with a cybersecurity incident.

But other services continued amid the investigation into the suspicious activity affected some of the Signature Healthcare information systems, according to a statement.

Emergency services for walk-ins, inpatient services, surgeries and some procedures were still ongoing on Monday, and urgent care and ambulatory physician appointments were expected to continue Tuesday, though potentially with delays after the hospital moved to what it called “down-time procedures to ensure high-quality patient care and safety.”

Chemotherapy infusions at the Greene Cancer Center were canceled for Tuesday, and the hospital’s Brockton and East Bridgewater pharmacies were set to be closed on Tuesday as well.
