From the Illinois EMSC Program.
The purpose of the Pediatric Disaster Triage: Utilizing the JumpSTART© Method online educational module is to provide a review of mass casualty incident (MCI) triage concepts and tools such as Simple Triage and Rapid Treatment (START) for adults and JumpSTART© for children. This training allows participants to learn about these MCI concepts and tools and apply them through interactive scenarios.
It is our hope that pre-hospital, and hospital professionals, primary healthcare providers, school nurses, and public health department personnel will utilize these materials to further enhance the care of children during disasters.
