On May 16th, a statewide emergency response exercise will be conducted throughout NH. The following Point of Dispensing (POD) sites will be opened for the purpose of the exercise: North Hampton POD, Rochester POD, and Somersworth POD. PODs are emergency clinics designed to provide vaccinations or medication to the county's residents in the event of a public health or bioterrorism event.
Hundreds of volunteers are sought to be "victims" by participating in the POD exercise. The actors/"victims" will represent the throughput of the town/county. Additionally, Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) volunteers and Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) volunteers are sought to help with POD operations. Below are the needs of each POD site. Please reply directly to the appropriate contact at whichever POD you are able to volunteer.
Rochester: 10 MRC volunteers, 20 CERT volunteers, 150 actor/"victims" Contact Katie Kemen at kkemen@nschsc.org 603-335-0168g
