Emergency Managment and Facilities teams to test disaster equipment Thursday

On Thursday, May 19, the WVU Hospitals' Emergency Management and Facilities teams will test some of its disaster equipment by setting up one of the medical tents outside of the Emergency Department parking garage.

Starting at around 11 a.m., employees will see additional Emergency Management, Facilities, and Security personnel in the area. The tent will be up for a couple of hours, according to organizers.

This is an exercise only. Should there be an actual disaster, employees will be notified.
