Here’s an exercise you’ll want to do!  Fort Hamilton Hospital will be hosting the very popular “Dawn of a New Day” Mass Casualty Incident (MCI) Tabletop Exercise (TTX).”

 

The Southwest Ohio Regional Trauma System (SORTS), GDAHA, and Dayton MMRS invite you to attend.  This exercise has been specifically designed to help physicians, nurses, and personnel from all areas of hospitals, as well as EMS, law enforcement personnel and others, prepare for an overwhelming MCI such as those at the Orlando Pulse incident, or the attack on the Route 91 Harvest Festival in Las Vegas.  This exercise will raise dozens of questions about your preparedness for a mass casualty incident, require you to make quick decisions about what you would do in response, and force you to triage which decisions you need to make now and which can be postponed.

 

All personnel are invited to attend.  The exercise will be conducted Thursday, January 30th, 2020 from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM.  Space is limited, so sign up immediately!  You’ll receive exact location and other information a few days prior to the exercise.

 

To attend, simply sign up here:  https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/FtHamSignUp20A, or open the attachment for a QR code you can scan from your smart phone.

 

This exercise has been developed specifically for our region’s hospitals and public safety organizations.  There is no cost to attend, and the exercise will include lunch compliments of Kettering Health Network. EMS Continuing Education credits (usable by nurses) will also be provided at no charge.

 

When you have completed the sign-up survey form, it will show a message saying you have successfully registered. You will receive additional information by email, including location information and pre-exercise materials, a few days before the TTX.

 

The exercise will be different from other training exercises you or your personnel have attended. The TTX will focus on response activities to a disastrous situation and include the impacts throughout all aspects of hospital and public safety operations. 

 

Again, the TTX is titled Dawn of a New Day, and will be held Thursday, January 30th, 2020 from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM.  The exercise location will the Courtyard at Marriott, Ballrooms B & C, 1 Riverfront Plaza, Hamilton, Ohio.  In addition to free Con Ed, complimentary continental breakfast and lunch will be served.
