Be better prepared for natural disasters with MIMMS training
02 Sep 2024
MIMMS is a globally recognised training program. It teaches a systematic approach to a multiple casualty incident. This approach can be applied to any major incident. The emphasis is on scene management.
The course is based on developing the practical skills health professionals can use in management of health and casualties in a disaster or major incident.
The MIMMS approach provides consistency and ensures responders are prepared and understand the operational management structure they are working within, both inside the hospital and out in the field.
The training will be provided free of charge.
South Western Sydney Local Health District will hold the following MIMMS training courses.
- 18 October – Bowral Hospital – starting at 8am
- 6 December – Liverpool Hospital (Eastern campus) – starting at 8am
There are vacancies to accommodate two GPs at each session.
