NIHCC Healthcare Incident Command Training – Lewiston
The Northern Idaho Healthcare Coalition is sponsoring a free healthcare incident command training in Lewiston. There is no virtual option available.
This training will focus on the first steps of incident command in a healthcare setting. For those who attended the training this past March, it will be the same course. Many of you had expressed a desire to have coworkers attend this course which is why we are offering it again. The plan is to offer an intermediate-level course in the spring.
- Tuesday, November 3
- 9:00 a.m. – 3:30 p.m. PT
- Public Health – Idaho North Central District – 215 10th St, Lewiston
Lunch will be provided.
The training will be taught by Ken Mitchell, MBA, President and Principal Consultant at Evergreen EOC Solutions. Ken has 12 years of experience in healthcare emergency management, safety, and environment of care compliance. He has served in emergency management and safety leadership roles at Providence, Kootenai Health, and MultiCare Health System.
As President of Evergreen EOC Solutions, Ken has assisted many clients to include hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, rural health clinics, behavioral health treatment centers, and federally qualified health centers build robust emergency management, safety, and environment of care programs.

He has led facilities to be awarded ISO 9001 accreditation and has been on the Washington State Governor’s healthcare emergency management advisory board.
