Simcha Stern, an administrator at a skilled nursing facility located in the Los Angeles area, explains why a California National Guard medical team from the 297th Area Support Medical Company was brought in to help the nursing facility staff. This mission recently ended as the facility no longer needed the additional assistance. Stern thanks the Cal Guard team for their time at the facility. Interview conducted May 15, 2020.
