MCI Drill 4/21/2024

On Sunday April 21st, numerous area EMS, Fire and Police agencies gathered  at the Chuang Yen Monastery in Kent, New York for a practice Active Shooter Drill. 

Members of  Kent Fire Department,  Lake Carmel Fire Department along with the Lake Carmel Ambulance Explorers brought together members of their departments and with the help of Putnam Valley Fire, Putnam Valley EMS, Phillipstown EMS, Garrison EMS, Kent Police, Carmel Police and Empress a full scale multi-casualty incident was staged.

Family and friends of the department were outfitted to look like casualties, and a host of first responders from around the county triaged, treated and transported. The team work amongst the departments was seamless and impressive.

A big thank you from the Town of Kent EMS to all the First responders who took the time to put this drill together. Well Done.
