Pediatric
mass casualty disaster
November 2-3, 2024
Although pediatric hospital providers rarely encountered mass casualty incidents (MCI) in the past, emergency departments today are being challenged to prepare for disasters and acts of large-scale violence.
An MCI disaster simulation at the conclusion of BASE Camp provides you with a high-impact opportunity to consolidate your teamwork, advanced life support, airway management, and trauma resuscitation skills.
Nurses and child life specialists are also trained in the JumpSTART disaster triage tool.
Mobilize your team to apply a disaster triage tool, manage an overwhelming crisis with limited resources, and utilize your advanced airway and trauma procedural skills to resuscitate multiple critically injured children - all while prioritizing compassionate, family-centered care.
A multidisciplinary team of pediatric emergency experts - including trauma surgeons - help you to reflect on your crisis resource management in a mass casualty incident disaster.
