Emergency Preparedness

RiverStone Health emergency preparedness is responsible for coordinating and supporting activities including research, training and education, simulated exercises, public information and response.

Our goal is to provide and support effective planning both with community partners and within RiverStone Health. During an actual public health emergency, we play a vital role in maintaining the health of our community. We aim to prevent the spread of disease or reduce the impact of a major health risk by providing timely and effective public information and treatment.

RiverStone Health cannot prepare the community alone. Therefore we have built strong relationships with community organizations through the Yellowstone County Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC). By working together before an incident, we can more effectively respond and communicate should we be faced with a public health threat.
