Title: Fire at Jefferson Regional Hospital
Post by: Spiderham on Jul 26, 2023, 02:26 PM
Evidently bad enough that they are evacuating the hospital due to utility outages. No AC in the hospital. . We are supposed to get 16 of their patients at Baptist North.

That has to be one Hell of an undertaking.  I am guessing all hospitals have evac plans.  I bet they don't relish the opportunity to test them.

Most hospitals have a genset backup to run critical ops.  A/c is critical at most places, apparently not pine bluff.

I worked on the installation of the ones at UAMS, including the Biomed, Bed tower, ACRC, Jones Eye clinic, and the old physical plant.  They basically won't ever miss a beat there when they lose power.
We also did an install at Baptist (big)but it's been so long ago I can't remember what we put in.

I moonlighted at an Antabuse clinic in Pine Bluff when I was in med school and we had to round on patients at JR. That place looked janky even back in 1979.

I think it was somewhere around 40th st. Wonder if it's at the same place or did they build a new one?

What sorcery is this? Begone witch!

(I actually managed to master the complexities of G maps myself but the footprint looked much larger than I remember. Then again, I don't always remember to wear pants; so, there is that.)
