Aside from providing emergency communications to each county, District 5 also works on special projects. We are currently working with the Southwest Emergency Preparedness Team (SWEPT) to provide expertise and personnel in their effort to equip 24 hospitals and 43 primary care clinics in their 16-county region with amateur radio capabilities. The southwest region also has two HSEM Region 5 communication trucks with VHF/UHF and HF amateur radios.
