Mass Casualty Incidents and Surge Capacity
Mass Casualty Incident or Event (MCI/MCE)› “A situation in which a hospital receiving
multiple casualties does not have the resources to deal with the patients simultaneously.”
McAlister, 2011
Surge Capacity› “A health facility’s ability to rapidly expand
beyond normal services to meet increased demand for bed space, qualified personnel, medical services and public health programs in the event of a large scale disaster.”
Norman et al, 2012

Literature Review
Hospital emergency preparedness and response was “inadequate.”› Lack of comprehensive plans› Lack of training› Evolution of MCEs
“Learn from the mistakes of others. You can’t live long enough to make them yourselves.”
Eleanor Roosevelt

Relationship to Public Health Values
“There is a quantitative relationship between increasing casualty load and gradual degradation of the level of trauma care in multiple casualty incidents”
Norman, 2012

EM HICS
Set up EM HICS› Owned by Intermedix
Provides technology support to connect heathcare providers, public health agencies, and emergency management
› Funded by CDPHE OEPR Requires participation in a healthcare
coalition for integrated, coordinated, and organized response

Hypothesis
Improve hospital emergency preparedness for Saint Anthony Hospital › Quicker response› Staff is more comfortable with Hospital
Incident Command (HICS)› Better management of the event
![Page 10: Enhancing Hospital Emergency Preparedness and Response Utilizing Online Tools](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070419/56815b14550346895dc8c359/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Methods
Evaluate EM HICS
Survey HICS during debriefing
Implement EM HICS
Used during an active shooter exercise
Provide staff trainingProvided during routine emergency preparedness meetings
Set up EM HICS database
Contact database Assign HICS positions
Set up initial job actions
Insert files into IRGs
