This two-day Hospital Major Incident Medical Management and Support (HMIMMS) course helps prepare staff to pivot the hospital to major incident footing.
Emergency planners often take away significant numbers of ways to improve their plans from this course. Frontline clinicians increase their confidence, so they respond optimally.
Feedback from previous participants indicates that doing this course increases wellbeing by offering a sense of psychological safety around the rational fears of that day.
