Piedmont University will hold its annual mass casualty training exercise next week on Wednesday, March 19.
The exercise, which involves over 150 students, faculty and staff will feature participation from a wide range of first responders, including representatives from at least a dozen agencies and two local hospitals.
It aims to demonstrate the effectiveness of Piedmont University’s emergency plans and the strength of its partnerships with local response teams.
The exercise also serves as a drill to ensure the university and first responders are prepared in the event of a mass casualty event or crisis.
Following the exercise, a full-scale press conference will be held with speakers from Piedmont University and various partner organizations.
