Poughkeepsie, NY… Local, regional and state health care and emergency response professionals came together today to conduct a table top training exercise on the draft “Alternate Care Site” plan designed to deal with a surge in patient volume in the local health care system that exceeds capacity in the event of a widespread or pandemic illness. The event was hosted by the Dutchess County Departments of Health and Emergency Response and was led by representatives from New York Medical College of Valhalla. The event was held at the Dutchess County Emergency Response Center on Creek Road in Hyde Park.
