UNDERSTANDING INCIDENT MEDICAL NEEDS

most incidents fall into three situations

STAGED NEAR CARE

BASE CAMP & ICP

A medical unit supporting hundreds of personnel at camp, with hospitals within reasonable reach.

  • Medical unit staffing under the Logistics Section
  • Sick Calls, minor injury & blister care
  • Heat illness and hydration monitoring
  • Rehab support at check-in / demob
  • Coordination with local EMS for transport

Keeps crews healthy and on assignment instead of cycling to town for minor issues.

LIMITED ACCESS

DIVISION & LINE SUPPORT

EMS personnel assigned to divisions where the nearest ambulance is far off and hospital transport takes time.

  • EMT or Paramedic-level line personnel (EMTF/EMPF)
  • Patient stabilization until transport arrives
  • Field-ready trauma & medical kits
  • Communication with medical command
  • Ground & Air evacuation coordination

The goal isn’t replacing the hospital — it’s bridging the gap until the patient gets there.

REMOTE OPERATIONS

REMOTE & EXTENDED ATTACK

Very delayed response, difficult terrain, long extrication times where distance affects outcomes.

  • Highly skilled clinicians with cricitcal thinking ability
  • Advanced life support capability on scene
  • Extended patient management
  • Physician oversight & medical command
  • Evacuation & medevac planning

For assignments where terrain and distance to care shape survivability.

Determining medical support needs

key points to evaluate

about access to critical care

  • How long would it take an ambulance to reach the line
  • How long from the incident to the nearest trauma center
  • Is the local ambulance service career or volunteer
  • Are Paramedics available (ALS) or only EMTs (BLS)
  • Is air medical available, and what limits its use
  • What fire conditions could delay evacuation

about the incident

  • What are the most serious injuries that could occur
  • How many personnel, across how many divisions
  • What is the expected duration of the incident
  • Are the heat, smoke, or other exposure concerns
  • What level of medical unit does the IAP call for
  • Do agency or contract terms specify medical staffing
