🏥 2025 Annual Medical and Health Exercise (AMHE)

The 2025 Annual Medical and Health Exercise (AMHE) was an operations-based exercise designed to validate the ability of the Los Angeles County (LAC) Healthcare Coalition (HCC) and its partners, including Amateur Radio operators, to coordinate a robust medical response during a catastrophic event.

Sponsored by the Los Angeles County Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Agency, the AMHE focused on testing critical capabilities like patient surge, hospital evacuation, transportation coordination, and maintaining continuity of service delivery.
