Article Out Loud - Best Practice: Auxiliary Radios for Healthcare Facilities

by ASHLEIGH HOLMES  , An Article Out Loud from the Domestic Preparedness Journal.  When an emergency or disaster occurs, healthcare facilities require reliable communications for ensuring the safety and well-being of those in their care. The New York City Emergency Management Department has revamped its City’s emergency radio communications program to ensure that critical information can be exchanged before the next incident. Their best practice serves as an example for other jurisdictions to upgrade their equipment and build in communication redundancies. Narrated by MacGregor Stephenson.
