The purpose of the Retreat is to join with representatives from EMS, EMA, LTC, FQHC, Hospice, Hospitals, and PH for fostering the collaboration and unified decision-making that drives regional progress. Each of these sectors plays a vital role in our ability to respond to and manage public health challenges, emergencies, and long-term care needs. The meeting includes key discussions that are vital to addressing the ongoing needs and challenges facing the coalition to include going over plans, trainings, projects, ongoing costs, goals and planning for future coalition efforts.
