A system and method for assisting casualties, categorizing survivors, and communicating pertinent casualty and survivor information to external emergency response teams during a crisis situation. A kit may be provided that comprises a variety of emergency medical supplies, instructional casualty treatment information, and a plurality of casualty placards. Able-bodied survivors with no medical training may use the kit and its contents to properly prioritize and provide basic emergency medical assistance to help reduce casualty mortality during a crisis situation. Instructions and method steps contained within each kit teach each user to first fortify a safe haven, attended to casualty bleeding issues, attend to casualty airway issues, place casualties in a recovery position while continually reassuring and reassessing the casualties, and finally notifying or otherwise communicating casualty number and status to emergency responders. Responders may utilize the casualty information to most appropriately formulate and implement their response strategy. |
