As of Wednesday afternoon, all of the families had departed the area. Since ComAir Flight 3272 went down Thursday evening, the Red Cross has conducted 400 mental health consultations and worked closely with the NTSB and ComAir to arrange family visits to the crash site for 53 family members. The Red Cross has also alerted chapters throughout the country that family members of crash victims may call them, seeking assistance.
Chapters nationwide are prepared to provide mental health services.
In Cincinnati, the Cincinnati Area Red Cross chapter provided 78 mental health consultations with families travelling through Cincinnati and airline personnel. The Cincinnati Area chapter staff remain on-call if needed. The Red Cross served over 2,000 meals at the crash site and the reconstruction area. The Southern Baptists supported the Red Cross feeding effort. The local unit of the Salvation Army also conducted feeding.
