Membership Overview
The Southwest Colorado Healthcare Coalition (SWCHCC) serves the 5 counties and 2 Indian Tribes of Southwest Colorado: Archuleta, Dolores, La Plata, Montezuma, and San Juan Counties, and the Ute Mountain Ute and Southern Ute Indian Tribes. The SWCHCC exists to develop, enhance, and promote the region’s healthcare emergency preparedness and response capabilities through communication, planning, training, coordination and collaboration with coalition partners for the delivery of safe and high-quality patient care during emergency events. The coalition also works to ensure Healthcare organizations are in compliance with CMS standards for Emergency Management.
By completing this application, you are agreeing to represent your organization as a member of the Southwest Colorado Healthcare Coalition. We would like for each organization to have at least 2 representatives (Primary and Secondary) but you can have additional representatives as well. You will receive information from the coalition about meetings (dates/time, locations, agendas, and minutes), educational/training opportunities, exercises, and grant funding opportunities. As a member of the coalition at least 1 representative from each organization is required to attend, at a minimum, 2 quarterly meetings each year in order to be considered an active member in "Good Standing".
