🚨This is ONLY A DRILL ! 🚨

Preparation saves lives. Mass casualty exercises give first responders, dispatchers, hospitals, Firefighters and partner agencies the opportunity to practice working together before a real emergency occurs. Training helps strengthen communication, improve coordination, and ensure we’re ready when our community needs us most.

The injuries shown are simulated for training purposes only. These photos are part of a demonstration. No one was hurt during this exercise.
