Fairplex Youth Migrant Housing Facility – Pomona, CA
Dept. of Health and Human Services
Subcontractor for Medical Services
April 2021 – October 2021
Acadian provided critical healthcare services for immigrant children at a 2,500 bed facility in Pomona, CA. Acute care clinics and first aid stations for the intake sites were established and we consistently provided between 130-200 physicians, mid-levels, nurses, and support staff daily. Acadian provided medical oversight including development of operational policies and procedures, as well as daily operational leadership and oversight for clinic operations and medical staff. Our major focuses were conducting age-appropriate physicals, immunizations per CDC guidelines, and routine clinic follow up visits.
Afghan Refugee Housing Medical Services – Virginia & New Jersey
Dept. of Health and Human Services
Subcontractor for Medical Services
April 2021 – March 2022
Acadian provided 200 Physicians, nurses, and staff for COVID-19 screening and culturally competent medical care during intake and housing of Afghan refugees. This project required work across multiple government entities and insight into interagency working relationships. Our team developed medical operations policies and procedures for care across the lifespan. Some of the care provided included but was not limited to: continuous medical monitoring, OB and post-partum, infant, pediatric, and adolescent care, quarantine monitoring, administration of immunizations per CDC guidelines, daily rounding on medically fragile patients, including vital signs and medications.
Medical Support for Disaster Workers – Florida & Kentucky
FEMA
Prime Contractor
August 2022 – September 2023
Acadian deployed teams of paramedics and nurses to support disaster recovery efforts in the wake of Hurricane Ian in Florida and historic flooding in Kentucky. During both events, Acadian teams set up on-site medical clinics to provide care to the first responders and the ongoing recovery efforts which can often last months.
Medical Transportation Services for VA Health Care Systems – Louisiana, Texas, & Tennessee
Department of Veteran Affairs
Prime Contractor
Ongoing
For more than three decades, Acadian has provided ambulance and medical transportation services to VA Health Care Systems in Louisiana, Texas, and Tennessee. These services include fulfilling day-to-day transportation requests, we also provide specialized service, including critical care, bariatric, ECMO and NICU/PICU team and organ procurement transports, and have assisted with emergency evacuations and large-scale facility moves. This work has special meaning for our company; in fact, the eight medics who formed Acadian’s original workforce in 1971 were Vietnam veterans who represented every branch of the armed forces.
Community COVID-19 Vaccination, Testing & Medical Support– Ft. Lauderdale, FL
Florida Department of Health
Subcontractor for Medical Services
March 2020-July 2020
Beginning in early March 2020, Acadian was contracted to construct, supply, staff, and manage a 150-bed field hospital in Ft. Lauderdale, FL intended to treat overflow patients from nearby hospitals. An Acadian Incident Management Team was activated and the facility was fully staffed and operational in less than two weeks. Staffing included physicians, mid-level providers, nurses, pharmacists, x-ray technicians, paramedics, and other assorted medical specialists and hospital administrators. After three and a half months, the field hospital was ordered to demobilize the remaining staff and was retasked to support Florida’s COVID-19 testing program until July 2020.
COVID-19 Vaccination, Testing & Monoclonal Antibody Infusion Sites – Louisiana
Louisiana Department of Health
Prime Contractor
June 2020-March 2022
In June 2020, Acadian was contracted to provide congregate facility and strike team COVID-19 test administration services in LDH regions 2-5. Testing was primarily performed in nursing home settings with staffing consisting of a nurse or paramedic, accompanied by an LPN or EMT, and a medical records administrator. In February of 2021, vaccination services were added to the existing scope. Acadian was later awarded a contract to provide staffing and equipment for monoclonal antibody (MAB) infusion sites across Louisiana. At peak, seven sites were mobilized across the state, each allowing less than 72-hours for mobilization. As the Omicron variant rendered MAB infusions less effective, Acadian worked with the state to develop protocols and procedures for the delivery of Remdesivir through the same infusion sites.
