Can you confirm?
It is part of the hospital, mostly doctor's offices and part of the cancer center. It's not a traditional department like the ER, OR, ICU, etc like one would expect. This is a multi-campus hospital that covers several blocks so it is a part of it.
Per the media, the 3 firefighters who made the mayday calls were recovered and sent to the hospital. 2 with smoke inhalation and heat exhaustion, the third firefighter possibly went into cardiac arrest.

Im kinda upset that they did that with the audio feed..... the news always wants to put blame on some one & thats not what the audio is for ..... & not why i share it at all! sorta makes me wont to take it off RR. =/ I enjoy sharing it i just don't like it turned into a tool to accuse people or a department!
I don't think stuff like this should be posted for everyone to hear. I'm sorry if people disagree with me, but the wife and kids and his family shouldn't have to hear his last words while dying in this fire. This is why I'm strong opponent of end-to-end encryption on everything.
now i think thats taking it a little to far its a hobby & we + any one else should be able to listen, but the use to place blame or imply guilt isn't right.
I do find it interesting that your a member of this site & don't wont to be able to listen!?!?!

The things I need to listen to and talk on I have the ability to do so.
They can get the exact same recordings by sending a request to their 911 center. So having them here makes no difference. I don't sense "blame" in this, but it does raise a question for someone on why it took so long for water to get there?
