An early morning crash between a Metrolink commuter train and a
truck on Feb. 25, 2015, created a massive fireball and caused
four train cars to derail. Ventura County Medical Center
initiated the MCI and polled nine area hospitals that immediately
responded with Emergency Department capacity. More than two dozen
patients were transported.
ReddiNet Mobile Apps are now available in the Apple App Store and
Google Play Store. You can view and send messages, view and
update diversion status and initiate (if applicable) or respond
to an MCI from your Android or Apple tablet or phone. As with the
ReddiNet desktop application, the modules and features you have
depend on your permissions as set by ReddiNet.
ReddiNet demonstrated its upcoming new Mobile App in iOS and
Android platforms at the Emergency Medical Services
Administrators Association of California Conference May 28 and 29
in San Diego. This new application will go live on July 1, 2014.
California Department of Public Health (CDPH) and the Emergency

was focused on the Homeland Security Target Capabilities of
Medical Surge, Communication, Emergency Operations Center
Management, Emergency Public Information and Warning, and Public
Health Epidemiological Surveillance and the exercise scenario was
a foodborne disease outbreak.
