Agencies Conduct Mass Fatality Training

A number of different regional agencies recently took part in a mass fatality training.  Daron Ryan of the Hood River County Health Department says it is important as a region to practice when a catastrophe strikes.  Ryan says the incident they practiced involved 19 victims.  One of the biggest challenges in this region is the capacity of these agencies to handle a major emergency.  Ryan noted that in this community, a lot of people have multiple responsibilities, and that can complicate response.
