MCI/Disaster Module System

      The product line was designed as a modular system. Each emergency function that an agency is responsible for has it's own trailer. The System was designed to provide immediate response to Earthquakes, Tornadoes, Hurricanes, Major Fires, Wild Land Fires, Plane and Bus Accidents, Multi-Vehicle Accidents and Terrorist Acts.

 

The System consists of:

*MCI Triage Cache * Haz-Mat Decon * Combination Triage/Decon * Emergency Lighting 
*C.E.R.T. Equipment Cache * C.E.R.T. Command Post / CCP Station * Field Morgue

 

The feature and benifits are as follows:


THE SYSTEM

FEATURE                                                                  BENEFIT 

*The trailers are water, dust and rodent proof                 *This protects the supplies and equipment
                                                                                     
from being damaged while being stored.

                                                                                   *It also protects the sterility of the
                                                                                     pr
oducts
                                                                                 
                                                                                  
*Everything is ready for use when needed

                                                                                   *Only the irrigation water needs to be                                                                                      rotated every five years


*
Side opening doors                                                      *One of the main features of The System
                                                                                     
is "Organization".  When the doors
                                                                                     
are open - everything is in plain view
                                                                                     
and easy to find.

                                                                                   *We have installed swing up doors on 
                                                                                     
each side of  the trailer so that you can                                                                                        got what you need, when you need it. 

                                                                                   *If you were to put our contents into a                                                                                      standard trailer, it would require a trailer                                                                                        three times the size


*Wedge tongue compartment                                         *The wedge compartment increase
                                                                                     
the storage capacity of the trailer

                                                                                   *The wedge also is aerodynamically 
                                                                                     
designed to reduce wind drag

                                                                                   *Provides an additional lockable 
                                                                                     compartment
for ALS supplies


*The trailers are compact in size                                    *The trailers can be towed by any vehicle                                                                                      that you can put a trailer hitch on.

                                                                                   *A large truck is not needed

                                                                                   *The compact size requires less parking                                                                                      space

                                                                                   *If used on site, two people can push 
                                                                                     
them to where they are needed. 

                                                                                   *People not use to towing a trailer are
                                                                                     
more comfortable towing our trailers

                                                                                   *They are easier to move in confined                                                                                      spaces

                                                                                   
*They do not require electric brakes
or                                                                                      hook-ups

                                                                                   *When a standard, rear opening trailer is                                                                                      used - and for you to be able to get what                                                                                      you need, you have to build shelves into                                                                                      the trailer. When you do this, you lose                                                                                       66% of your storage space.

                                                                                   *Our compact trailers utilize 100% of  
                                                                                     
the storage space. 

                                               
*The Triage Cache serves a dual application                   *Our trailers can be used for both disaster
                                                                                     
and mass casualty insidents 

                                                                                   
*The main compartment contains BLS  
                                                                                    supplies

                                                                                   *The front "Wedge" compartment was                                                                                      designed to contain either generators and                                                                                      lights or ALS supplies                                                                                                    

*The modular system                                                   *The system provides for a safe storage of                                                                                      the equipment and supplies

                                                                                   *The modules are stored away from trees,                                                                                      buildings and power lines so that they do                                                                                      not become part of the disaster. 

                                                                                   *Each emergency function has it's own                                                                                      Module (trailer)
   

                            
                                                       *If every thing is put in one trailer, a
very                                                                                      large trailer is required.         

          
                                                                         *If you have a large trailer, you
also need a                                                                                      large truck.
    

      
                                                                             *By each function having it's own
Module,                                                                                       you only need to respond to an incident                                                                                       with what you need.

                                                                                   *By each function having it's own trailer                                                                                       you eliminate several functions trying to                                                                                       get their equipment out of the trailer at the                                                                                      same time.

                                                                                   *The modular system allows you to                                                                                       preposition the units through out the                                                                                      community so that when the disaster                                                                                       strikes the equipment is already on site.  

        
                                                                           *The modular system also allows
 other                                                                                      communities that you might mutual aid                                                                                      with to standardize on the same system 

                          
                                                         *When our modular system is used 
 it                                                                                       eliminates having to find a truck to load                                                                                       the back up supplies and equipment on 

                                                                                   *There is no lost time in getting to the                                                                                        incident site because you had to load the                                                                                      back up supplies

                                                                                   *The Cache is ready to respond at a                                                                                       moments notice.


*Trailer Construction                                                    *We construct the trailers three
ways.                                                                                      (1)Galvaneal Steel, (2)Steel Frame and                                                                                       Aluminium Skin (3)All Aluminum

 
*Galvaneal Steel Construction                                        *We use galvaneal steel to provide
a trailer                                                                                       that will last for years 

                                                                                   *Galvaneal steel is 99.44% rust free. We                                                                                       also use automotive primer and paint for                                                                                       long lasting protection

 
*Steel Frame & Aluminum Skin                                     *By using the steel frame and aluminum                                                                                       skin, we greatly reduce the weight of the                                                                                      trailer 


*All Aluminum                                                             *The ALL Aluminum trailer
is the lightest                                                                                       of all. It also eliminates any possibilities of                                                                                      rusting.  This is the best trailer to add lift                                                                                       line hooks to.

 
*Optional Lift Line Hooks                                             *When this option is used, the trailer can                                                                                       be airlifted to remote areas by helicopter.

 

      When supplies and equipment are stored in a warehouse, this presents some other problems when responding to an incident. When the supplies arrive at the incident site they are off loaded onto the ground. If it is wet out this present another problem. The biggest problem is that the supplies are in boxes and the medic has to assess the patient then go to the supply box to get what he needs.  Normally the medic will make several trips to the supply boxes for each patient he treats. Standard trauma kits do not work well because they are so compartmentized. If the medic is not familiar with the trauma kit then they have to hunt for everything. We designed a special "Disaster Trauma Kit" to solve these problems

      The other tendency is to put a little of everything into the supplies. The efficiency of the medic is reduced with every decision he has to make. So instead of putting 2x2's 3x3's and 4x4's and 2", 3" and 4" roller bandages in to the supplies we put a lot of 4x4's, 5x9's and 4" roller bandages. This way the medic does not have to make decisions. The trailers come stocked with Disaster Trauma Kits, Roll-A-Stretchers, Trauma Patient Packs, Boxes of back up supplies, Backboards and an Triage Management Kit.
