The work of Megan O’Brien in leading our COVID Task Force was recently profiled on CNN.

Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, BCCRS staff and volunteers have been going well beyond their normal commitments in order to staff additional ambulances and support the local emergency response system. Our pandemic response required close to 1500 extra hours of staffing, a challenge our volunteers were able to rise to.
In addition to staffing ambulances herself, Pvt. Megan O’Brien led a tosk force to coordinate, improve and manage our protocols for decontamination, personnel safety and operations.

Her work and the contributions of a few other volunteers and staff were profiled by CNN recently. Watch the segment here:
