The HCC will conduct the Medical Response Surge Exercise (MRSE) on Tuesday, May 20, 2025, from 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM. The MRSE is a operations-based exercise required by the Hospital Preparedness Program (HPP) Cooperative Agreement. It is an exercise designed to test HCC-E surge capacity and to identify gaps in surge planning. There will be no movement of actual patients. This is not an in-person exercise, all participants/players will remain at their facility/organization to participate in the functional exercise. More information and instructions for how to participate in the exercise will be emailed to participants.
