Kids In Disaster Kits Focus on Pediatric Triage
EMS responders share some of the most meaningful cases of their careers, sometimes with humor and always with compassion. We hope that they will help us improve your practice and inspire a new generation of caregivers.
Over 3,600 K.I.D. (Kids In Disaster) Kits, a pediatric resource for disaster responders and receivers developed by Dr. Lou Romig, Florida EMSC Medical Advisor, have been distributed to prehospital and hospital provider agencies statewide, nationally and internationally. This kit focuses on pediatric aspects of disaster triage and the emergency medical assessment and treatment of illness and injury resulting from man-made or natural disasters. It provides PowerPoint presentations, video, and resources for use in training staff and developing pediatric protocols in disaster management.
