I went to a training on MCIs tonight and a question came up that got us thinking, so I thought I would put to all of you: During an MCI and you are the 1st truck on scene, do you stay until all pts are transported or if you have multiple critical pts, do you take the most critical and split if you know there is another truck not far behind? (assuming you have multiple first responders on scene doing triage, other pt care, etc.)
The other thing that makes this more complicated is we have only 1 ALS truck (medic/emtb). If the ALS truck is on scene first, does this still apply or would it constitute abandonment?
just curious what other services policies are saying.
