Jefferson Parish President Cynthia Lee Sheng says they don't want local hospitals filling up with people who need to plug in portable medical equipment because they don't have power.
"The backup battery only lasts for about 12 hours," said Sheng. "We don't want people in the hospital who dont' need medical issues to be resolved just because they can plug in."
Sheng said they have set up several location on both sides of the river for residents who need to power their medical equipment.
