2 MCI Dispatch Protocol Revisions The following packet contains the changes to the MCI Dispatch Protocol along with a brief review of Scene Size Up involving an MCI, Declaration of an MCI and Scene Management Priorities. The first section in this packet contains the New MCI Dispatch Protocol showing the number of units that will be paged for Level (1-3) MCI. Included in this section is a Note page for pertinent clarification, Wire Diagrams/Command Flow Charts for Level 1-3 and a Blank Template Wire Diagram/Command Flow Chart to be utilized by Command Units. This change in number of units responding for Levels 1-3 was created by utilizing a Wire Diagram/Command Flow Chart format for each Level 1-3. They were created by simulating the number of units it would take to efficiently manage and process the given number of victims per each Level 1-3. It must be noted that these diagrams are examples only of where units can be assigned to efficiently manage an MCI. The Incident Commander is responsible for assigning units as needed based on incident priorities. The second section contains a brief review of Scene Size Up involving an MCI, Declaration of an MCI and Scene Management Priorities. Although there are many considerations in the management of an MCI, this document reviews some coaching points for the First In units with respect to initial assignments, scene safety (hazards) and scene security, Triage, Treatment and Transport. The last part in this section lists some plans for Future Changes to the Management of the MCI being developed and tested by the MCI committee. Effective date for this MCI Dispatch Protocol change is February , in the CAD system.
3 Purpose- Enhance the Number of Emergency Vehicles responding to MCI s, Engines, Rescues, Command Units and Support Units - (Support 81, TCU, DRU1, etc ), Include Wire Diagrams for Levels of MCI to show the utilization of units that will be responding. (Wire Diagrams are Examples Only- Incident Commander to assign units as needed). Review MCI Scene Size-Up, MCI Scene Declaration and Scene Management Priorities Revisions- Increased number of units responding to the Declared Level of MCI Level 1(5-10 patients) Level 2(11-20 Patients) Level 3( Patients) 4- Engines 7- Engines 8- Engines 6- Rescues 11- Rescues 19- Rescues 2- EMS Captains 3- District Chiefs (1- Sp/Ops D/C) 4- District Chief (1- Sp/Ops D/C) 1- District Chief 3- District Captains 4- District Captains 1- Battalion Chief 2- Battalion Chiefs 3- Battalion Chiefs 1- Helicopter-Standby 1- Division Chief 1- Division Chief 2- Helicopters- Standby 2- Helicopters Standby 1- Special Operation Team 1- PIO 2- Special Operations Team 1-PIO Special Deployment Units 1- Support TCU (Tactical Command Unit) 1- DRU2 and DRU3 1-Tactical 34
4 *Note The number of units responding for each Level MCI is based on the maximum number of Victims / Patients for that Level MCI *Note - Incident Commander can downsize level of response per numbers of victims/patients based on the severity of injuries/illnesses *Note: When an MCI is upgraded to the next Level MCI the Incident Commander will receive the balance from the previous Level MCI to supplement the requested Level MCI *Note: For MCI Level 4 ( patients) and Level 5(OVER 1000 patients) refer to Level 3 Wire Diagram (command flow chart) repeat Level 3 MCI for every 100 patients Below Operations *Note: Wire Diagrams are Examples Only- Incident Commander to assign units as needed
5 Wire Diagram/ Command Flow Chart Level 1 The dashed lines illustrate the movement of units from their initial assignment to possible additional assignments. * Wire Diagrams are Examples Only- Incident Commander to assign units as needed
6 Wire Diagram/ Command Flow Chart Level 2 The dashed lines illustrate the movement of units from their initial assignment to possible additional assignments. * Wire Diagrams are Examples Only- Incident Commander to assign units as needed
7 Wire Diagram/ Command Flow Chart Level 3 The dashed lines illustrate the movement of units from their initial assignment to possible additional assignments. * Wire Diagrams are Examples Only- Incident Commander to assign units as needed

9 Scene Size- up involving an MCI, Declaration of an MCI and Scene Management Priorities and Plans for Future Changes This section contains a brief review of Scene Size- Up involving an MCI, Declaration of an MCI and Scene Management Priorities. Although there are many considerations in the management of an MCI, this document reviews some coaching points for the First In units with respect to initial assignments, scene safety and security, Triage, Treatment and Transport. The last part in this section lists some plans for Future Changes to the Management of the MCI being developed and tested by the MCI committee.
10 There are many SOG s that can apply to an MCI but here a few that we should review with our crews. Incident Command SOG # 1105 Staging SOG# 1310 Disaster Response Units SOG # 1322 Personal Protective SOG # 1510 Traffic Operations SOG # 1740 Vehicle Accident SOG # 2310 MCI SOG # 2315 Response to Violent Incidents SOG # 2320 Response to HAZ MAT/WMD Incidents SOG # 2401 Emergency/ Gross Decontamination SOG # 2407
11 Review MCI Scene Size-Up/MCI Declaration/ Scene Management Priorities MCI may have been declared prior to First in Unit arrival based on caller/dispatch information Important that First in Units stage other responding units for assignment to allow for proper scene size-up Perform Outer and Inner Circle/Scene Survey for Potential Hazards- Address Immediate Safety Concerns Not Limited To - Wind Direction, Product Clouds, Placards, Unstable Vehicles, Leaking Fuels, Number of Vehicles, Hybrid logos, Number of Distressed Civilians Visualized, Electrical Hazards etc Determine number involved versus number of victims/patients Persons with No Injury/Illness should not be counted to Declare Level of MCI Proper scene size up is important in declaring the correct level of MCI Begin Triage using S.T.A.R.T. and Jump S.T.A.R.T. process Refer to MCI Triage F.O.G. including the S.T.A.R.T. / Jump S.T.A.R.T. algorithm Declare Level of MCI with Type Level 1 (5-10 patients) Level 2 (11-20 patients) Level 3 ( patients) Level 4 ( patients) Level 5 (over 1000 patients) Type- Traumatic, Chemical, Medical, Pediatric etc Law Enforcement to secure area/establish perimeter Control scene to eliminate the potential of anybody involved leaving the scene Important they keep road clear for Entry and Exit of Transport Vehicles
