Cindy Notobartolo, Suburban Hospital Corporate Director
of Emergency/Trauma, Safety & Security
Services, gave a presentation of what area hospitals
and emergency services providers have done since
the 9-11-2001 attack on the United States which killed
over 3,000 people to improve readiness. This was
a most appropriate discussion of the coordination
and preparedness that has been done since then. Thank
you, Cindy.
Bottom right: Most Americans understand the threat posed by the foreign leaders and their followers who have sworn to annihilate us. Cindy Notobartolo, Suburban Hospital Emergency/Trauma Corporate Director, addressed us not only on how the Maryland medical and emergency service organizations have prepared themselves but also what you can do in your home. You should have medical supplies, water, food, a portable radio and other supplies as well in your home. If you are required to evacuate, a "Grab Bag" of such necessities to be ready in an instant to leave your home or office is recommended. This also includes financial records, passports, other I.D., some cash, gasoline and a PLAN. This is sound advice on this seventh anniversary of the attacks on New York City, Washington and the downing of the jet airliner in Shanksville, PA. Thank you, Char, for bringing us this program. |

Our members also have donated significant service hours to the "Y" including help in telephones for their annual fund raisers. Bernadeen also has signed the forms to become a Bethesda Kiwanis member. So, thank you, Bernadeen! |
