Meet the Press… Naval Hospital Bremerton earthquake response drill Oct. 15, 2024, included a mock press conference held with the incident commander and acting commanding officer. “It gave our incident commander and commanding officer the experience of having to deal with the media if there is a real emergency event, not just an earthquake,” explained Terry Lerma NHB emergency manager. “Just as we train to respond to any actual incident, we also prepare on how to properly reply with timely, accurate information, which is key to getting the command’s actions, intent, and status to staff and patients.” (Official Navy photo by Douglas H Stutz, NHB/NMRTC Bremerton public affairs officer) Share

Taking a Seismic Account…Naval Hospital Bremerton earthquake response drill Oct. 15, 2024, focused on a full-scale evacuation of the military treatment facility and complete accountability of all hands. “We have to know where everyone is. It’s absolutely crucial. We need 100 percent accountability, whether they are here in the building or off duty or deployed or on leave. It’s crucial. Should the building collapse or portions fall, we have to account for everyone. If we can’t, they could possibly be in those damaged areas. We would then determine if we needed to send fire and rescue or first responder teams to search in that location,” stated Terry Lerma. NHB emergency manager.
