SALT triage is a system used in mass casualty incidents to sort and prioritize patients based on the severity of their injuries and the likelihood of survival. The goal is to ensure that limited medical resources are used as effectively as possible.
This course is an introduction to the Region 5 Hostile MCI Protocol and to the Rescue Task Force concept. The information in this course was developed by Western Michigan University Homer Stryker MD School of Medicine's Division of EMS and Disaster Medicine on behalf of the Region 5 Medical Control Authority Network, the 5th District Medical Response Coalition, and the Region 5 Homeland Security Planning Board. The intended audience for this course is licensed EMS personnel as well as law enforcement personnel. The course is ideally designed to be complemented with hands-on training and periodic multi-disciplinary exercises.
