Hinson, Chairman, Region F .~S Advisory Council <br /> <br /> RE: E~..[S Hutual Aid Response Plan for Region F <br /> <br /> On September 22, 1981, the COG staff initiated a surprise "paper" drill of the <br /> %egionTs EMS mutual aid response plan at the reques~ of your local ~.[S directors. <br /> The scenario for the drill included a school bus accident in ~t. Pleasant, with <br /> some twelve to fifteen seriously-injured children and a number with lesser <br /> injuries. Cabarrus, Mecklenburg, Rowan, and Stanly Counties participated in the <br /> drill. <br /> <br /> On behalf of the Region F E~S Advisory Council, I'd like to congratulate tEese <br /> counties for their excellent response to this drill. The Cabarrus Emergency <br /> Services Director was notified of the "event" at 9:44 a.m.; within ten minutes, <br /> he had notified the appropriate officials in surrounding counties and received <br /> commitments of sixteen ambulances. An additional three ambulances were committed <br /> in the next fifteen minutes. <br /> <br /> We are now in the process of updating our mutual aid response plan to account for <br /> the one or two minor difficulties encountered, and will test the plan in the <br /> remaining four counties this winter. We are confident that they will perform <br /> successfully. <br /> <br /> A~atn, I want to congratulate you and your emergency se~;ices directors for their <br /> participation in the drill, and for their help in ~reparing and updating the <br /> mutual aid response plan. We believe that their contributions will significantly <br /> improve regional response to a mass-casualty situation. <br /> <br /> P~/am <br /> <br />CABARRUS COUNTY concord harrisburg mount pleasant GASTON COUNTY belmont bessemer cily cherty~ille cremation <br /> <br />Iroulman LINCOLN COUNTY li~lcolnton MECKLENBURG COUNTY charlotte cor~lelius huntemvi[le matlhews pinevllle <br /> <br /> ROWAN COUNTY china grove failh grantte quarry landis salisbury spencer STANLY COUNTY albemarle locust <br /> <br /> <br />
