New 10,000+ sq ft warehouse is helping the Tidewater EMS Council expand to meet the growing needs of our community
Two core strategies of our strategic plan are to strengthen partnerships and to strengthen infrastructures and both of these things are happening because of this warehouse opportunity. With our partners, the Hampton Roads Metropolitan Response System and the Eastern Virginia Healthcare Coalition, the new warehouse provides the opportunity to make sure we have adequate space to prepare for and deliver the services that we’ve committed to.
The Eastern Virginia Healthcare Coalition (EVHC) works with healthcare organizations and providers, public health departments, and community partners to care for our community before, during and after an emergency.
