LAKERIDGE HEALTH
BOWMANVILLE
April, 23, 2002
Mr J. Caruana
Director, Community Services
40 Temperance Street
Bowmanville, Ontario
LlC 3A6
Dear Mr. Caruana:
The Emergency Measures Committee of Lakeridge Health, Bowmanville is currently in the process
of revising its emergency response procedures.
It is necessary for the Hospital to have a formal plan to address evacuation procedures and the
re-Iocation of patients should an actual disaster be realized.
The Committee has suggested both the Garnet Rickard Recreation Complex and the Courtice
Recreation Complex be ideal evacuation centre's because of the size of their ground level
accessibility.
On behalf of the Lakeridge Health Bowmanville's, Emergency Measures Committee, I would like to
formally request your consideration designating these Recreation Centre's as evacuation facilities
for our community Hospital.
Please let me know as soon as possible as to the acceptance or rejection of our proposal.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
M. Green
Program Leader, Engineering Services
Chair, Emergency Measures Committee
