Emergency Medical Minute


 

Nov 30, 2018

 Author: Dylan Luyten, MD

Educational Pearls:

 

  • Early recognition that the current situation is a mass casualty incident (MCI) is essential with establishing a sole provider/nurse to oversee
  • Team members labeling themselves by name and role is also helpful
  • Practice and prepare for these unfortunate events

 

Editor’s note: This podcast comes at the end of a MCI drill over several days
