Abstract:
Evacuation/Oxygen Bus The Chicago Fire Department (CFD) identified a need to treat multiple stable fire/inhalation victims who require oxygen, whether due to a previous medical condition or as the result of an acute event, such as evacuation of or fire in any building, hospital, or treatment facility. As a partner with the Chicago Department of Public Health (CDPH) and an active participant in the “Chicago Healthcare System Coalition for Preparedness and Response”, the CFD determined that a bus could be an adjunct in city responses and emergencies. With the support of the Coalition, the CFD ap

Objective: To forecast the number of patients who will present each month at the emergency department of a hospital in regional Victoria. Methods: The data on which the forecasts are based are the number of presentations in the emergency department for each month from 2000 to 2005. The statistical forecasting methods used are exponential smoothing and Box?Jenkins methods as implemented in the software package SPSS version 14.0 (SPSS Inc, Chicago, Ill, USA).

Abstract:
Introduction:Recent hospital fire incidents in South Korea have heightened the importance of patient evacuation. Moving patients from an intensive care unit (ICU) or emergency department (ED) setting is a challenge due to the complexity of moving acutely unwell patients who are reliant on invasive monitoring and organ support. Despite the importance of patient evacuation, the readiness of ICU and ED for urgent evacuation has not been assessed.Aim:To enhance the readiness and competencies of workers from ICU and ED in the evacuation of patients during a simulated tabletop fire exercise.Methods:

Abstract:
Introduction: Hospital fire can result in greater casualties, injuries to patients or staff, and loss of property and equipment compared to fires in other types of building. This is attributed to the presence of a large number of vulnerable individuals, including those who are ill, disabled, pregnant, children, elderly, immunocompromised, on life support, or incapable of moving independently. This study aims to assess the implementation of the fire protection system, life-saving facilities, and fire management in Hospital X.

Introduction:A 2018 poll by the American College of Emergency Physicians shows 93% of surveyed doctors believe their emergency department is not fully prepared for patient surge capacity in the event of a natural or man-made disaster. While an emergency disaster plan is activated during any incident where resources are overwhelmed, many US emergency physicians today think of a mass casualty incident (MCI) as the inciting event. To better prepare our communities, an MCI simulation took place in Chicago 2018 with participation from local and federal representatives. Included were Chicago fire, p

Abstract This chapter examines the program in action. First, it looks at how the service-delivery component of CAPS actually worked. By the 1990s, local officials had absorbed the idea that crime—and especially fear of crime—was intimately linked to both casual social disorder and the physical decay of the city’s neighborhoods. They were therefore not surprised when our first survey found that building abandonment was among the most bothersome problems in high-crime Englewood; the district commander already had a list of more than 600 abandoned buildings in his desk drawer.

If you amble through the curving lanes of Burlington’s Aspen Grove Cemetery, designed by Aldo’s Grandfather Starker, you will come upon the Starker family vault nestled on a woody knoll. Pines and oaks guard simple stones inset in the grass marking the graves of Aldo and Estella. Aldo had returned to the land and family that had first instilled the land ethic within him. Then Clara Leopold died within a few months of her beloved eldest. Marie, Carl, and Frederic Leopold remained active in Burlington and in local conservation, with Fred becoming nationally renowned for his work with wood ducks.

Abstract:
Abstract Planning For Automobility In Denver In 1945, the Denver metropolitan area counted twice as many motor vehicles as in 1930, but the city’s streets were ill equipped to handle the traffic. Parking, which had traditionally been free on all Denver streets, was a particular problem. Mayor Stapleton was voted out of office before he could address the issue, but his successor, Quig Newton, launched three simultaneous initiatives to foster increased automobility. He established a traffic engineering department, built off-street parking facilities, and created the Denver Planning Office (DPO).

Abstract In the winter of 1892, P. G. Temple set a modest proposal before the regular January meeting of the Gillespie County, Texas, Farmers’ Alliance. He suggested that the Alliance send a memorial to the managers of the Columbian World’s Fair in Chicago. The exposition, scheduled to open the next year, promised to put on display “the world’s resources and progress in every department of human effort.” In Temple’s view, justice demanded that the men and women responsible for producing this wealth also be represented at the fair. Temple proposed that the exposition managers Temple’s proposal
