Two Army Nurse Corps nurses working at the emergency room of Loma Linda University Medical Center have created create new disaster carts, classes and protocols, according to an article on the Loma Linda University Health website.
They researched previous mass casualty events and made calls to the local hospitals that cared for the victims to research what worked and didn’t work in saving lives.
They then created specially equipped disaster carts that were readily accessible and mobile in the event of an incident.
They created carts with supplies that correspond with the level of sustained trauma based on NATO’s color-coded system. Green carts provide care for the least severely injured, yellow carts provide equipment for patients who are injured and are unable to move, and red carts contain supplies for the critically injured where life-saving treatments are needed.
