FDIC 2023 Mass Casualty Response Preview

FDIC 2023 in Indianapolis is rapidly approaching and your favorite co-host is excited to be presenting for the 8th year in a row. No, not that one, the other one. Sheesh.

Justin, our Fire and EMS expert is back presenting Mass Casualty (MCI) response for first in firefighting companies and shares a few new elements of his presentation that the New York Times called “Please stop emailing us random things to review.”

Specifically they discuss the fact that there isn’t always safety in numbers, especially when trying to evacuate an emergency and the guys discuss the stampede in South Korea that reinforces that reality.

You can catch Justin’s presentation on Thursday the 27th at 330. If you’re in Indy and spot him, make sure to use the code word “Jason’s hair” for a free beverage.

Also, stick around for the end of the show for a “Kansas City Special” featuring Tom Jones. Not a euphamism.

This week we discuss:

• The importance of anticipating egress when responding to an emergency scene
• Why setting up casualty collection early is a priority
• How and when most people will exit a building in an emergency
• What. The. Hell. Is. Going. On. In. KCFD?
