    Abstract:
    The best EMS major incident response program comes from excellent day-to-day delivery of care, combinbed with common sense preparedness and an excellent relationship with hospitals, law enforcement and regional public health officials. Expansion of a few physical assets, understanding the regional resources that can be utilized for major incidents, and routine use of an incident management system will lay the necessary groundwork for a major terrorist incident response. System leaders must consider the adaptation of triage efforts and response, with security and responder safety issues becoming an immediate consideration.
