Emergency Preparedness
TraumaOne's emergency preparedness staff is responsible for the safety of patients, visitors and staff throughout Shands Jacksonville's 65-acre campus during natural and man-made disasters, from hurricanes to terrorist threats. The team is also responsible for coordinating the hospital's response to any mass-casualty incident with the potential to bring in a large number of patients with serious injuries. Recent examples include a parking garage collapse in downtown Jacksonville in November 2007 and an industrial explosion on the city's Northside just two weeks later. In situations like these, the staff is able to mobilize teams ready to respond to anything that comes through our doors.
