About

This template helps healthcare groups plan for emergencies with many burn victims. It describes how to manage resources, decide where patients go, and work with experts. The annex includes steps for activation, roles and responsibilities, logistics like space and supplies, special considerations like pediatric care, medical operations such as triage and treatment, transportation needs, patient tracking strategies, rehabilitation services after the event is over. It also provides training exercises to prepare staff members in advance of a crisis situation involving burns or other injuries requiring specialized care coordination efforts across multiple facilities within an area networked together through coalitions formed by hospitals working collaboratively on disaster response planning initiatives aimed at improving overall preparedness levels among participating organizations involved directly or indirectly during mass casualty incidents (MCI).
