A better summary in 3 quotes. Ask yourself whether you would be able to deliver on these. #14thCCS

The formal summary - do this for MI planning #14thCCS

Critical care reality check part 2

4. Transfer capacity may be overloaded
5. CritCare is subspecialising
6. MTC capacity probs
#14thCCS

The critical care reality check for MI planning.
1. You don’t have spare capacity
2. Patients will end up in the wrong place.

Practice is important, but it’s not all about big exercises. Workshops/tabletops/imagination probably more effective. #14thCCS

Use a common language for Management CSCA and then Clinical care TTT #14thCCS

IMMS principles http://www.alsg.org/uk/MIMMS

Key message - try and do as much ‘normal’ as you can. Don’t add complexity on what will be a stressful event already. #14thCCS

Action cards should incorporate the hierarchy. Demonstrate relationships and scalability. KISS principles #14thCCS

Scalable hierarchy has fewest essential leaders based on normal working practice. Command (red) roles essential. Green be normal. #14thCCS

HMIMMS uses the scalable response principle. Plans must grow from what’s available (from probs with time or geography). #14thCCS

At 2am on Saturday ED/CC is full and off duty staff are unavailable, asleep, squiffy or all three.

Can your plan grow in response? #14thCCS

Hospitals are very different at 9am on Thursday when capacity available, staff, available, awake and sober #14thCCS

Your response must be deliverable irrespective of time or geography…. but…….

MI plans are important - BUT - most people will not have read it. RTFP does not work.

Plan for not reading the plan! #14thCCS
