MCIM Module I will prepare students who are the first responders to a mass casualty incident to take appropriate initial control actions of the medical problem and perform the initial triage of patients.
MCIM Module II provides more in depth information on managing mass casualties, including creating the medical command structure. A table top exercise helps practice the skills taught in the class.
MCIM Module V is designed to increase the integration of pediatric issues in state disaster response plans. On completion of this course participants will have a better understanding of pediatric triage, pediatric medical control, psychosocial needs of pediatrics, and pediatric transport plans.
