MEMS 2
MEMS 2 : Modular Emergency Medical System. Developed by the U. S. Army, MEMS is designed as a system to manage a huge mass casualty load in a community resulting primarily from a covert bioterrorist attack, but also from virtually any other cause. MEMS addresses the gap in casualty care resources that would exist in most medical care jurisdictions if a large number of victims were to seek treatment from neighborhood area hospitals. MEMS is based on the rapid organization of two types of expandable patient care modules: the Neighborhood Emergency Help Center (NEHC); and, the Acute Care Center (ACC). MEMS also includes a Medical Command and Control (MCC) element, Casualty Transportation System (CTS), Community Outreach, Mass Prophylaxis, and Public Information components
