Disaster Preparedness Seminar

Smyrna suffered one heck of a flood in May 2010. It devastated the central area of Tennessee and dislocated many Smyrna residents. It also caught a lot of locals unprepared as few knew how quick things can change from the normal to the chaotic. Stonecrest Hospital is offering to you the chance to get some education on being prepared and it is at no cost to you...free.
