The Fairbury, Nebraska hospital was back in business Saturday after being evacuated Friday afternoon because of a chemical leak.
Jefferson Community Health Center south of Lincoln was evacuated after a hazardous-materials unit discovered a chemical leak in the hospital's laundry room.
Assisted living and long-term care tenants were taken to a nearby church after the leak of the unidentified chemical. Four patients were taken to other health care facilities.
