Disaster Response

An integral part of disaster preparation is State Medical Assistance Teams (SMAT) -  a tiered response system composed of team members specifically trained for medical disasters.  The second tier of SMAT (Or SMAT II) is a hospital-based team of medical professionals established to provide patient decontamination, mass medical care, alternate care facilities, and mass drug distribution points. 

We offer the following SMRS (State Medical Response System) disaster preparedness training opportunities:
