During the training, participants learned how to:
🔹 Safely set up a Community Reception Center
🔹 Monitor and support the public during a radiological incident
🔹 Use tools to detect radiation
🔹 Demonstrate proper decontamination procedures
🔹 Strengthen coordination across statewide partners

One of the key organizers of this statewide effort was Jamie Penza from our Public Health Preparedness team, who helps lead Wisconsin’s CRC work.

There is no heightened risk of radiological exposure. This training simply ensures Wisconsin agencies stay prepared, informed, and ready to support the public in any emergency.
