Beloit Health System, Blackhawk Technical College, and several emergency response agencies throughout Rock County conduct a large-scale training exercise (Saturday) at the college’s main campus and Beloit Memorial Hospital.

According to a news release, the training exercise will test the preparedness of all agencies involved and the potential impacts to the health care system.

While the exercise may appear to resemble and actual emergency, it is just a drill.

Participating agencies include Police and Fire from the City and Town of Beloit, the Clinton, Turtle, and Footville Fire Departments, Beloit Transit System, and Team Rubicon.
