Beebe Healthcare partners with National Guard for emergency preparedness drills
Beebe Healthcare, a healthcare system serving southern Delaware, partnered with a number of agencies, including Delaware National Guard, Delaware Division of Public Health’s Emergency Medical Services & Preparedness team, City of Lewes Ambulance, and University of Delaware to host emergency preparedness drills.
During the drills, two scenarios were simulated: a bus carrying special-needs children crashed, sending many to the hospital; and a hurricane approaching the city of Lewes required evacuation of the hospital.
