Members of the SFD complete training on the new Wicomico County Mass Casualty Trailer. The trailer has the ability to provide basic life support services such as oxygen therapy, backboard/spinal stabilization, infection control, trauma mitigation, and other disciplines.
The unit was funded by tax dollars and grant funds.
What's next. A hemorrhoid emergency transport vehicle. Wanna be doctors without brains.
ReplyDeleteKind of disturbing, that the local police dept. is outfitted with a "mass casualty" trailer...instead of the highly trained paramedics and firemen. Not that the police dept. doesn't get first aid training, but wouldn't this be more appropriate for the ambulance and rescue crews?
ReplyDeleteI like that it says "Mass Casualty Trailer" on the side. Bring on mayhem, Wicomico is prepared! $$$$$$$$$
ReplyDeleteMaybe they can pull it with the sheriffs armored vehicle.
ReplyDeleteSheriff Shorty will save us.
ReplyDeleteWhere does it say anything about the police department -- they were training the local fire and emergency medical services people.
ReplyDeleteMartial law is coming to a city near you...
ReplyDeleteWe now have the ability to provide life saving emergency services to multiple people in remote areas. This is a good thing.
ReplyDeleteI hope it never needs to be used but I can't believe all of the complaints.
I can't believe what I'm reading. Some of you really need something to do.

ReplyDeleteI am pretty sure our officers of WC will provide the other DISCIPLINES.
FYI. The County has had a Mass Casualty Trailer for 20+ years. This is just replacing that old unit. I could try to explain its exact purpose but you guys don't want to hear that you just want to complain about everything.
ReplyDeleteWho are they kidding, it's going to be ready and stocked for their own employees.
