  • Title: Are you prepared for terrorist attack? New report tells how to train ED staff.
    Journal: ED Manag; 2001 Aug; 13(8):85-8. PubMed ID: 11496441.
    Abstract:
    A new report from the American College of Emergency Physicians and the Department of Health and Human Services gives specific training objectives for ED staff to prepare for casualties of nuclear, biological, or chemical (NBC) incidents. Courses tailored to the objectives will be available in approximately one year. You should include decontamination scenarios in disaster drills. Be certain that NBC incidents are addressed in your hospital's disaster plan. Provide adequate training for staff with an instructor who has been trained by the Department of Defense or has undergone training in hazardous materials.
