Medical Surge and Response Drill

Upcoming Medical Surge and Response Functional Exercise scheduled for May 14, 2025.
A functional exercise (FE) is a hands-on, interactive simulation that focuses on testing and evaluating specific emergency response capabilities in a controlled environment. Unlike a tabletop exercise, which is discussion-based, a functional exercise requires real-time decision-making and coordination among participants within your own organization, simulating an actual emergency scenario without deploying real resources.
We are encouraging all hospitals and EMS agencies to participate.
