  • Title: Mobile units let ED reopen after flood.
    Journal: ED Manag; 2008 Aug; 20(8):90-1. PubMed ID: 18770941.
    Abstract:
    When Columbus (IN) Regional Hospital flooded, staff continued to offer emergency services through a mobile unit named the Carolinas Mobile Emergency Department (MED)-1. To take advantage of this and other similar options as quickly and smoothly as possible: Have contact information handy for the various governmental agencies whose approval will be required. Discuss with the provider of the mobile service the type of equipment you have in your ED, so that staff orientation will be conducted properly. Recommend to administration that in such situations, the entire staff should be kept on salary, to ensure full staffing of the mobile unit.
