Episode 50 - Ready for Anything
from The 9 Line Hosted by VA Southern Nevada Healthcare System
As a Healthcare System, we need to be prepared to not only deal with a health emergency that a Veteran may have, like a heart attack or a stroke, but we also have to be ready to deal with any situation life my throw at us like a natural disaster or a pandemic. Since March 2020, we've been confronted with the many challenges of the COVID-19 Pandemic, and one of the reasons we've been able to deal with COVID as well as we have is because our staff has been trained and drilled on many occasions of exactly what to do during a pandemic. The people who manage and administer that training and planning work as part of our Emergency Management department. On this episode of The 9 Line, we speak with Dr. Felix Acevedo and Adrian Allen, two of the individuals here at the VA Southern Nevada Healthcare System who come to work every day thinking about the worst case scenarios, and then planning and devising ways to keep those scenarios at bay.
