Decontamination and triage
...the paramedics in the hallway are talking about an industrial explosion their colleagues are responding to, maybe some people dead on scene; a person presents to triage, coughing, and reeking of some pungent chemical; a train derailment spills toxins into the air and water of a small town...

How do we respond, from initial triage and decontamination, to communicating to our organizations and the public?
