Team Training
Alcor provided a three-day training course for a team sponsored by Terasem Movement, Inc. (a 501c3 not- for- profit organization). The team, consisting of five personnel who are paramedics/firefighters from Brevard County Fire Department, traveled to the Alcor facility in Scottsdale to tour and learn the field procedures. At the conclusion of their training, they participated in a multi-hour dry run scenario for the team to better understand the flow of the skills they had learned and for Alcor to evaluate the effectiveness of its newly designed training program.

Member Watch
There were 6 Alcor members who had surgery in the month of June and 2 additional members who are considered to be in fragile condition for a total of 8 people we are actively monitoring. We are very pleased with the advanced notice that we have either received or discovered through communication with members who have upcoming surgical procedures. We hope to continue to promote this membership benefit so that all members will think to keep Alcor in their medical information loop.
