Last week, Jeff Pennycuff, W9JAP said:
• I've made contact with the heads of Safety & Security at IU Health Academic Health Center which includes Methodist and University hospitals in an attempt to discuss the possibility of installing a Hospital Net Control Station at one or both locations. As they are currently in the planning phases of several years of upcoming construction projects including several new buildings, I thought the timing may be right to incorporate the benefits of Amateur Radio Emergency Services into the new building plans. The critical connection between Methodist & University Hospitals and the suburban hospitals such as IU West in a regional emergency are unmistakable and clearly advocate the need for discussions. I will keep you informed as to my progress.
• The various meetings and nets mentioned above are all training opportunities. Please participate in as many as possible.
