DREXEL HILL, Pa. (CBS) -- All operations at Delaware County Memorial Hospital were suspended on Monday. Eyewitness News cameras were at the hospital in Drexel Hill this morning. 

The hospital closed its doors at 7 a.m. 

The Pennsylvania Department of Health made the announcement on Friday

A county spokesperson says the decision is a result of Prospect Medical Holdings', Crozer Health's parent company, failure to adequately staff the hospital. 

The county says it's exploring all options to keep the hospital open.
