About this episode
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
