The SNS assets are designed to supplement state and local public health agencies in the event of a large-scale public health emergency or pandemic influenza event that causes state and local medical resources to be depleted.

As a result of that, SNS awarded a contract to the American Association for Respiratory Care (AARC) to develop fifteen (15) ventilator training videos to prepare� state and local public health agencies on how to use SNS Ventilators effectively during a public health emergency. AARC is responsible for hosting annual SNS webinars and trainings during national and state conferences for respiratory care.� The goal is to provide webinars and hands on training to respiratory therapists and other healthcare professionals to prepare for emergency deployments. This training is essential to ensure SNS readiness posture during a response. In addition, the ventilator training workshops ensures state and local public health agencies understand how to request this equipment to further allocate the life-saving medical equipment.
