The purpose of the Mass Casualty Incident Response Management training is to describe the distinctive nature of mass casualty incidents and the adjustments to standard operating procedures during mass casualty incident responses. Although each mass casualty incident has characteristics that are unique to that event, this training provides guidance for leadership and instructions for actions that are common to the majority of mass casualty incidents. Best practices for each of the functions involved in these types of events are described, including suggestions for staffing and implementation.
