Brown said Lufkin is the first major town that evacuees traveling Highway 69 reach, a voyage that could take seven or more hours on the congested roadway. The city’s civic center has been turned into a medical unit for nursing home patients evacuated from the coast, and area nursing homes have taken additional patients. Brown said. “It’s been so hectic here,” said Wendy Walker, the front desk clerk at the sold-out 39-room Days Inn in Nacogdoches, 15 miles north of Lufkin. “Any time the vacancy sign came on today, I had five or six cars blocking the road so no one else could get in.” Walker said guests have reported no hotel or motel vacancies for a 75-mile radius of Nacogdoches. “I’m sending them to the shelter, but a lot of peo ple don’t want to go there.” In Tyler. East Texas Medical Center (ETMC) sent eight ambulances to Beaumont Tuesday after noon to evacuate 16 nursing home patients. ETMC Tyler expects up to 30 patients from Beaumont hos pitals. and ETMC Rusk expects up to 20 child bum victims from a Galveston hospital.
