Abstract
During periods of civil unrest, emergency medical services (EMSs) clinicians will be called upon to provide care to those impacted, including those who are actively instigating violence. Working during periods of civil unrest poses significant operational and security challenges to EMS leadership and clinicians. This review provides best practices for EMS operating during periods of civil unrest through analysis of after action reports from Baltimore, Maryland; Charlottesville, North Carolina; Minneapolis, Minnesota; and Washington, DC.
期刊介绍：
With the publication of the American Journal of Disaster Medicine, for the first time, comes real guidance in this new medical specialty from the country"s foremost experts in areas most physicians and medical professionals have never seen…a deadly cocktail of catastrophic events like blast wounds and post explosion injuries, biological weapons contamination and mass physical and psychological trauma that comes in the wake of natural disasters and disease outbreak. The journal has one goal: to provide physicians and medical professionals the essential informational tools they need as they seek to combine emergency medical and trauma skills with crisis management and new forms of triage.
