Take a Peek Inside an Emergency Drill


United Hebrew of New Rochelle Emergency Drill

A bomb-sniffing dog is not something you typically see at a nursing home, but earlier this week, New Rochelle Police in Westchester, New York responded to a the report of a suspicious package as part of a mock incident at United Hebrew of New Rochelle.

The drill included a partial evacuation and will help emergency responders and staffers better prepare for an actual emergency at the skilled nursing facility where many of the residents have limited mobility.

In 2017, United Hebrew of New Rochelle partnered with local emergency services to conduct a mock hazmat drill.
