DMEP is a one-day course that is both didactic and interactive. It addresses core competencies as outlined by the ACS COT Disaster and Mass Casualty Management Committee. Major topics include planning, triage, incident command, injury patterns and pathophysiology and consideration for special populations. Small group discussions are based on illustrative scenarios. This course requires a pre and post-test which are reviewed on-site.

  • The intended audience includes acute care providers (i.e., surgeons, anesthesiologists, emergency medicine physicians, emergency room, operating room, intensive care unit, and trauma nurses, and prehospital professionals) who will most likely be the first receivers of casualties following major disasters. Other health care providers, administrators, public health personnel, and emergency managers are also encouraged to attend.
