This podcast is part of our series of real-time discussions centering around the COVID-19 response in jurisdictions throughout the United States. In this session, we will focus on the response efforts of two Law Enforcement agencies; we will interview Lt. Kevin O’Brien, Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office and Lt. Richard Nelson, Orange County (CA) Sheriff’s Office. Our discussion will identify how both agencies have had to adapt their response protocols to keep their officers safe but able to do their jobs effectively during this crisis. We will look at lessons learned, best practices and challenges faced during this unique response effort. Finally, we reflect on how their participation in Enhanced All-Hazards Incident Management / Unified Command (MGT314) course prepared their agencies for this response.
