Note that KPARN serves the Southern California Operating Area including Kern County (Bakersfield), the greater Los Angeles area (Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino Counties), and San Diego County (see facilities map).
Kaiser Permanente has facilities in other parts of California (especially the San Francisco Bay Area) and in other states.
If you are interested in areas outside those served by KPARN, please contact local Kaiser Permanente medical centers (hospital facilities, safety, or emergency preparedness department) in your area to see what organizations support them with emergency amateur radio services.
