Inhaltsangabe

This is a course manual incorporating 28 disaster medicine and public health competencies for the Advanced Disaster Life Support course (ADLS v3.0). The course builds on the combined framework of the Predisaster Paradigm, the Disaster Program from the Core Disaster Life Support course, and the guidelines for all-hazards clinical management of disaster casualties from the Basic Disaster Life Support course. The course manual presents a framework for mass casualty management and population based response, then presents material on triage for disasters and public health emergencies, health system surge capacity, and community health emergency operations. Other subjects covered are legal and ethical issues, personal protective equipment, casualty decontamination, and mass casualty management. Chapters include bullet points, checklists, summaries, and websites. A glossary, a chart of competencies, and a list of acronyms and abbreviations are also included.
