JOINT BASE ANDREWS, Md. –
Emergency-readiness exercises are being held for first responders at the 79th Medical Wing on Joint Base Andrews.
Practicing for various medical emergency scenarios allows our first responders at the 79th Medical Wing and hospitals in the region the opportunity to train together for a myriad of contingencies.
The exercises evaluate the response of a mass casualty incident.
It also gives time to give classes and train personnel as issues come up.
