Facility reopens after law enforcement investigation                                                                                                                   

PLATTSBURGH, NY (12/11/2022)  –  A bomb threat early Sunday morning resulted in a 4-hour lockdown of the University of Vermont Health Network – Champlain Valley Physicians Hospital (CVPH).

After receiving the phone call shortly before 8 a.m., CVPH officials immediately called in New York State Police and the Plattsburgh City Police, who conducted a full sweep of the facility and campus. The sweep, which included a K9 Unit, revealed nothing suspicious. While the investigation continues, law enforcement has determined the threat to be low and normal operations at CVPH have resumed.

“Thank you to the staff for continuing to care for our patients throughout this event. Thanks to our law enforcement partners for their assistance and expertise,” said CVPH President Michelle LeBeau.
