I've seen reports of hospitals delaying non-essential and elective surgeries, but no reports of emergency care being impacted
Yup, the same happened during the various COVID waves. When there are more patients than they can reasonably provide care for, they triage and ensure those with the greatest need get seen.
My wife said that the nurses' computers were down in the neonatal ICU that she works with. So they had no access to any patient's medication lists or dosages during the outage.
