AbstractThe maritime environment presents a unique set of challenges to search and recovery (SAR) operations. There is a paucity of information available to guide provision of medical support for SAR operations for aircraft disasters at sea. The Republic of Singapore Navy (RSN) took part in two such SAR operations in 2014 which showcased the value of a military organization in these operations. Key considerations in medical support for similar operations include the resultant casualty profile and challenges specific to the maritime environment, such as large distances of area of operations fro

This case study details the disruption of computer operations at Mount Sinai Medical Center (MSMC), an urban academic teaching hospital. The events, and MSMC’s response, are narrated and the impact on hospital operations is analyzed. MSMC’s disaster mana

Introduction:Health emergencies such as the COVID-19 pandemic, strain health systems and emergency response mechanisms. Identifying critical points during the response cycle where the emergency workforce and operational capacity can be improved can help break the protracted nature of responses. Global health emergency workforce, or health emergency and alert response teams such as multidisciplinary Public Health Rapid Response Teams (RRTs) and Emergency Medical Teams (EMTs), play critical roles in response to public health emergencies.The project aims to explore and understand how countries ma

Recent communications between counsel for an Emergency Medical Service (EMS) provider in New Jersey and the state Department of Health (DOH), Office of Emergency Medical Services (OEMS) claimed that the DOH was providing illicit access to private health information (PHI) based within the providers electronic patient care report (ePCR). While the response from the DOH indicated that the information sharing was completed in accordance with all state and federal laws, the concerns raised by the law firm are not novel concerns.

AbstractIntroduction: On 26 December 2004, a large earthquake in the Indian Ocean and the resulting tsunami created a disaster on a scale unprecedented in recorded history. Thousands of foreign tourists, predominantly Europeans, were affected. Their governments were required to organize rapid rescue responses for a catastrophe thousands of miles away, something for which they had little or no experience. The rescue operations at three international airports in Sweden, the UK, and Finland are analyzed with emphasis on “lessons learned” and recommendations for future similar rescue efforts.Metho

AbstractField first-aid data from the Wenchuan Earthquake in China was analyzed retrospectively in order to probe into ways to develop field first-aid operations and provide a reference for future emergency rescue. Related documents about the Wenchuan Earthquake were collected and reviewed. The state of injury and leading causes of death during the disaster were identified. The presnece of emergency medical resources on-site after the earthquake was relatively insufficient. Deaths mainly were due to cardiopulmonary arrest, severe craniocerebral injury, incurable hemorrhagic shock, and crush sy

The helicopter staff manages 1134 actions annually in average. In the case of 96 percent of all operations flown in a time limit of rescue of 10 minutes is managed. 97,4 percent of emergency operations are flown without any difficulties. The medical equipment is equivalent with emergency ambulance (NEF). The patients transportation in NEH is not practicable. The patients profile represents life rescue with a plain share of accidents

It was noted that an important and unsolved part of the problem of the inconsistency of the new tasks faced by the rescuers working under the conditions of today's additional restrictions to the conditions of using a wide variety of fire and rescue equipment in the rescue unit is the lack of a general approach to the formation of a set of goals for assessing what how well the "emergency situation - emergency rescue operations - rescuer" system functions, according to the results of simulation (both physical and with the help of computer) modeling.

AbstractIntroductionThe catastrophic Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011 created a crisis in a university-affiliated hospital by disrupting the water supply for 10 days. In response, this study was conducted to analyze water use and prioritize water consumption in each department of the hospital by applying a business impact analysis (BIA). Identifying the minimum amount of water necessary for continuing operations during a disaster was an additional goal.ProblemWater is essential for many hospital operations and disaster-ready policies must be in place for the safety and continued care of pat
