Last week, Greater Dayton Area Hospital Association (GDAHA) and Dayton MMRS provided a class via Zoom covering mass casualty incident (MCI) communications systems, including the Surgenet MCI page, Triage Ribbons and Treatment Tags, Quarterly Triage Days, OHTrac, and much more.  As promised, you are welcome to use this training at your agency.  The slides are available on https://daytonmmrs.org/index.php/ohtrac (or by clicking the OHTrac tab at the top of https://DaytonMMRS.org) and on https://gdaha.org.

But wait!  You can also view a video of the training.  A recording of the training is also posted under Region Three (West Central Ohio) Surgenet/OHtrac Training on the OHTrac page at https://DaytonMMRS.org.

The training covered:

• how to make the most of our region’s Quarterly Triage Day (QTD) Drills so your personnel are best prepared for a real-world MCI
• how easy and how much more effective it is to use the Surgenet MCI page than a Transport Officer Worksheet during an MCI
• answers to common questions about Triage “Treatment” Tags
• why OHTrac is much better (faster and easier!) than using the Transport Officer Log
• how and when to use the RHNS
• benefits of the using the “MCI MARCS” radio talk groups

More training is coming soon.
