The @HealthcareFacilitiesNetwork was talking with a colleague and they said to us, "Why don't you record an episode about the JFK assassination." This really is not what we do here at the Network until we thought, what if we cover it from the perspective of the Director of Facilities Management and the Director of Emergency Management? So that is what we did; what was the impact on @ParklandMemorialHospital Facilities Department when JFK fatefully visited Dallas in November 1963?
Thanks to our guests David Neely (Maine Medical Center) and Jeffrey Henne (University of Pennsylvania Health) for taking on those roles at Parkland, circa 1963.

On February 18, 1952, four Coast Guard men risked their lives in a howling nor’easter off Cape Cod to save 32 mariners on the shipwrecked, broken-in half tanker called the Pendleton. They brought all but one to safety in a wooden motorboat (CG36500) designed to hold no more than 12 people.
The Coast Guard called it the greatest rescue by a small boat in its history. The four men were called heroes. They shrugged it off and said they were just doing their job.
We are joined by Vince Patton, Master Chief Petty Officer (Retired), United States Coast Guard, and Ed Loughran, Owner, Charles River Wine Cellars, to discuss this incredible rescue mission.
Along the way, we ask and Vince answers if effective leaders still exist, we speak about Vince's love of his hometown Detroit Lions, and we talk about some famous US military figures.
This story goes far beyond our usual topic area of healthcare facilities management and healthcare engineering.
