Timber Ridge at Talus was honored for their creative fire and earthquake survival training videos for those at nursing and retirement communities.

Eastside Fire & Rescue and Fire Station 72 joined to script, film and produce a three-part DVD training series. Timber Ridge received the award during a King County Healthcare Coalition Forum.

In Timber Ridge’s training delivery, personnel from EF&R added realism by using a smoke machine to imitate a fire in a health center room as staff demonstrated correct procedures during emergency situations.
