A mass casualty incident, commonly abbreviated as MCI, is defined as “any incident in which emergency medical services personnel and equipment at the scene are overwhelmed by the number and severity of casualties.”  It’s interesting to note here that the definition includes personnel as well as equipment. Having the right supplies on hand in the event of a disaster is paramount to an effective response. Penn Care’s disaster response team has developed a comprehensive selection of MCI  trailers to help meet these needs.

Penn Care’s MCI trailer disaster response solutions provide fully equipped MCI trailers in several different packages. By incorporating all of the necessary supplies into a fully outfitted MCI trailer, your organization can be sure that they will be prepared when disaster strikes.  Penn Care’s MCI trailer units come in the following packages:

Mass casualty incidents can be categorized into natural disasters or accidental/intentional disasters. Events such as floods, tornados, explosions, chemical spills, and plane/train crashes are common examples of an MCI. Penn Care has an experienced team of professionals that can help you determine what your organization needs to have on hand for disaster response situations. Penn Care Vice President Don Bloom has assisted in many high profile events including 9/11, Hurricane Katrina and the 2010 Haiti Earthquake, and his experience has helped to shape Penn Care’s disaster response division.
