Precious Cargo: How We Safely Transported 202 Patients in 10 Hours

Hope and Will: A Parenting Podcast from Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta

At Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, Sunday, Sept. 29, 2024 was a day nearly a decade in the making. More than 200 Children’s patients—including several on advanced life support—traveled in a carefully planned caravan of 65 ambulances and made history as the first patients at Arthur M. Blank Hospital. And this was all in the wake of Hurricane Helene unleashing its wrath in the hours leading up to the big move.

Joining Lynn for this insightful conversation are four key figures who played an instrumental role in this historic event: Linda Cole, Alison Bolt, Amanda Grindle and Kristen Cranmer. They share behind-the-scenes stories of the complex logistics, collaborative efforts and unwavering dedication that made Move Day possible.
