KVVU Fox 5 TV: Spring Valley Hospital sets up precautionary overflow tent
"Not taking any chances, Spring Valley Hospital on South Rainbow Boulevard at Hacienda Avenue is setting up a mobile medical facility near its emergency department.
The facility is essentially a tent designed to accommodate patient overflow.
"Spring Valley Hospital is fully prepared to handle an influx of patients as we do every year. The tent is an example of the cooperative relationship we have with city and county emergency systems should the need arise," said Leonard Freehof, CEO and managing director of Spring Valley Hospital. "We also want to encourage people that if they are having a medical emergency to seek immediate medical treatment."
..."Setting up the city's mobile medical facility is a proactive step in making sure our valley is ready for any situation," said Las Vegas Mayor Carolyn Goodman. "Our emergency management team always strives to be ahead of a potential issue, and once again, this shows our commitment to being prepared."
