Catered with an amazing meal prepared by Chef Barnes and his students (who stayed late!) the Connecticut Disaster Medical Assistance Team held their first meeting in our Emergency Operations Center. We had a surprise special guest who traveled from Washington, D.C. for the meeting, Jonathan Greene, Director of the Office of Emergency Management and Medical Operations for the US Department of Health and Human Services. He came to be a part of the meeting, provide an update to employees, and speak about the importance of projects like our EOC to the greater state of National readiness. It was quite an honor and a very pleasant surprise. The meeting went well and at the end, Mr. Greene even swore in the new members of the DMAT team personally. Mr. Greene was very impressed with the work of our CJPS students and inspired that they might be the next generation of employees within the National Disaster Medical System. Comments are closed.
