A National Perspective on Mass Casualty Response
On 9 December 2019 Whakaari erupted and a year’s worth of referrals into the National Burn Service were made in one day. Although years of planning helped the National Service to prepare for this event, there were many unexpected challenges which needed to be overcome. Whilst proper planning, preparation and practice prevents poor performance, the importance of networking, adaptability and communication will be highlighted.  Details of the events will be covered (including outcomes) and important lessons which can be applied to other situations and disasters will be discussed.
