ST. CHARLES COUNTY HEALTH TO PRACTICE MEDICAL DISTRIBUTION PLAN JUNE 28

Exercise Offers Chicken Sandwiches as Thank You for Community Participation

In the event of a large-scale biological attack or a natural disaster requiring the delivery of medical resources to the community, the St. Charles County Department of Community Health and the Environment would institute a distribution plan in coordination with other regional entities. The department asks for community participation in its exercise on Thursday, June 28 that will test the capabilities of staff and other regional partners in completing roles in this plan.

“While we hope that we’ll never have to implement this plan in a real emergency, we regularly test our capabilities in the event that we should,” Department Director Gil Copley said. “While the health department would direct the operation of the plan, successful implementation would require cooperation and assistance from our entire community, which is why we’re asking for county-wide support for this event on June 28. Along with testing our ability to implement our plan, the goal of this operation is to strengthen the regional partnerships we’ve established. Everyone can play a part in this exercise from individuals and groups interested in serving as patients to trained medical personnel that join us as Medical Reserve Corps volunteers.”

Coordinated by the health department, the June 28 exercise will simulate the response to a biological terrorism incident in St. Charles County, which would require providing all County residents and visitors to the area with life-saving medication within 48 hours of the incident. To accommodate this, the department will establish a drive-through Point of Dispensing (POD) site, where staff and volunteers will practice their roles in the response. Operating from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., the drive-through POD exercise will be conducted on a parking lot adjacent to Mid Rivers Mall in St. Peters.

Individuals and groups can participate in the exercise by serving as drive-through patient seeking medication. The first 500 participants in the exercise will receive a sandwich and gift bag provided by Chick-Fil-A (6180 Mid Rivers Mall Drive in St. Peters) as a thank you for assisting with the event. All individuals in a car or larger vehicle will be considered independent participants for the purposes of this exercise, so carpooling is encouraged. To register as a group or individual participant or for information on joining the Medical Reserve Corps, please contact Joe Morin at 636-949-7554.
