An emergency training drill has been held in Bethel. The Fire Marshal recently teamed up with Bethel Health Care Command staff, Stony Hill Volunteer Fire Company Chief & EMS Captain and the town's Health Director for the exercise to relocate residents of The Cascades Assisted Living facility in the event of a loss of use of the healthcare facility. This exercise was in coordination with the Connecticut Long Term Care Mutual Aid plan and the state Department of Emergency Management and Homeland Security. Fire Marshal Tom Galliford says meeting with private partners such as Bethel Healthcare helps emergency responders to fine tune plans and make them better prepared for any event that may happen.
