Integrated Collaborative Network

[Bjorn, Pret]

I'd be interested in the local Emergency Preparedness after-action
findings, if anyone has access or insight.  There will be no end of
scrutiny and second-guessing over security and prevention (sound and
fury, signifying squat); but how did the local trauma care system
perform?

Good to have the Trauma-List (and Dr. Mattox) to initiate and organize
this sort of important communication, in terms of both just-in-time
information sharing and documentation of best practices.  Perhaps some
federal EMS/trauma funding might go to a more formal national
communication and resource plan.  After all, we might have up to $12
million burning a hole in our pockets...

Information has been received to the Atlantic Gulf Coast Trauma Disaster

Coalition that the number of wounded that arrived at the hospital are
currently  
within the capacity of the hospital.    They are BUSY.  Do  not call
friends 
at the hospital.   DO NOT go to  Roanoke.    Should any assistance be
needed, 
requests will happen  through EOC and integrated network channels.
Rest 
assured that  persons nearby to Roanoke who could readily be available
with 
supplies, nurses,  surgeons, etc. are available.  NO EXTRA OUTSIDE
assistance needs 
to be  mobilized at this time.    The Trauma Systems work and were
available 
for this tragic event.
