This afternoon, my building's superintendant came in and asked me where the
nearest hospital was. He wasn't feeling well and needed help.

I sat him down, got some members to talk to him, and looked up local
hospitals. Google Maps proved fruitless, though I did eventually find a
good list. After talking to him more, we decided to call 911, where they
advised us to wait for an ambulance to arrive. We're waiting to hear back
on his condition.

The incident was a big eye opener for me; emergency preparedness is
something you might not think much about until you have a really good
reason to.

I'm going to post contact information and the location of local hospitals
and such, but I've also added a step to our onboarding procedure asking
incoming members about their medical training. I figure this is a good
start.

Does anyone here have some helpful stories or tips to contribute in this
vein?

Cheers,
Tony
