Some nurses from Mendocino County are in Los Angeles to help the LA fire response. Five nurses from Adventist Ukiah Valley and another 6 from Adventist Howard Hospital are helping out at a sister Adventist facility in Glendale, near where the fires have been raging since Wednesday. The nurses say they share a bond with their colleagues and have experience in a community dealing with wildfires. Adventist says it’s part of a system-wide commitment to serve the places it operates. Crews say there is progress in containing the major fires, but that the situation remains perilous.
