UACCB to hold disaster simulation exercise Wednesday
Posted Date - 4/11/22
The University of Arkansas Community College at Batesville (UACCB) will be hosting an interdisciplinary disaster simulation on campus Wednesday, April 13 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
UACCB is working with several community partners to make this event more realistic for the students participating, including White River Medical Center, Vital Link EMS, Survival Flight, Batesville Fire Department, and AR Care Clinic.
Multiple departments are collaborating to provide hands-on, realistic disaster training for the RN, LPN, CNA, EMT and Paramedic students.
Do not be alarmed if emergency vehicles are seen on campus the day of the event as that is part of the scheduled response to the simulated event. Additionally, the parking lot in front of the Nursing and Allied Health building and the access road will be closed during the time of the simulation to assure the safety of all participants. Students and visitors are encouraged to park on the West side of campus on Wednesday.
