Please make plans to join us Saturday, November 8, 2008.

Special Request
Be lined up and ready for processing at 9 a.m.
This exercise lets us collect important data to evaluate the medication delivery model and identify strategies for improvement.
- In order to do that we need as many volunteers as possible to be lined up at 9 a.m. ready to be processed through the sites.
- This will allow us to serve you better at the time of an emergency.
Register in Advance!
- Registration for the exercise is not required but is encouraged. The process takes less than a minute.
