Hostage Negotiation Training
WTAP News
It's hard to believe it's almost been a year since the massacre at Virginia Tech. For 911 dispatchers in our area, they want to make sure they're prepared for any type of crisis like it in the Mid-Ohio Valley.

Our area is no where near ready to handle anything like what happened at Virginia Tech. Were no where near being ready to handle bird flu. And we all see how they handled the regular old flu over the last couple of months. If you had to go by squad to the hospital you had to wait until they called to see if any of the hospital's were taking patients. My Father in law about died in the ER waiting for a bed in ICU for over 12 hours because of the hospital being over run with flu patients. If this were a real pandemic we would all be dead. This area is not ready to handle it.
