Disaster Management: Mass Casualty Incidents, Classification, Kenyan Policy and the Response Cycle

A nursing deck distinguishing disasters from mass casualty incidents and mass casualty events, then classifying them by cause, by the injuries they produce, by the level of resources they overwhelm and by where they occur. It carries the Kenyan picture - a table of recent disasters and the people they affected, the national policy objectives and funding mechanisms, and the policy elements of prevention, mitigation, risk information and early warning - then preparedness, the activation, implementation and deactivation phases of response, recovery, the post-disaster health problems, debriefing, the terms of vulnerability, risk and mitigation, and the place of the outpatient department.
