Large Capacity Ambulance Buses

After disasters with large numbers of injured victims, the immediate ability of a government to react in an efficient way with an appropriate amount of rescue forces determines the survival- and long-term outcome of the patients. The special challenge in those disastrous events is to overcome the natural imbalance of available resources and victims seeking help. In addition, the rescue process presents a tremendous logistic problem; treating and transporting numerous patients to admitting hospitals, despite the usual collapse of traffic around a disaster area.
The Mass Casualty Ambulance Bus presents a unique solution to employ a fully equipped mobile clinic with intensive care units and an operating theatre. It makes optimal use of the human resources of Emergency Medical Services and ambulance vehicle capacities.


Large Capacity Ambulance Buses can be deployed as:

1. disaster response Unit
2. Mass Casualty Transport & Treatment Unit
3. Intensive Care Patient Transport Vehicle
4. Mobile Operation Theater
5. Hospital Evacuation Vehicle
6. Emergency Capacity for Hospital ICU
7. Isolation / Quarantine Ward
8. Mobile Hospital / ER

People were stranded on roofs for days, people had no water and no sanitation, and they were left waiting for the assistance/response that other disasters had received asap…

There was immediate response, helicopters and boats were rescuing people immediately, the system was overwhelmed by an unprecedented storm of great strength. I live in Florida and have been through 4 hurricanes, we expect to be on our own for several days and plan accordingly, FEMA has always been there for us in a reasonable amount of time.

I am trying to get my head around this. I asked this question earlier and got a mishmash of contradictory responses.

Christians believe natural disasters are caused by their God (usually to collectively punish sinners al la New Orleans). God causes the disaster for them and then the Christians pray for the victims, yet tens of thousands still die.

Take Action Today!

Can somebody please explain why Christians don’t simply pray to their God to stop causing the disasters in the first place so they will not need to pray for the victims.? Is it because God does not listen to prayers or because he actually does not exist?

Because it’s part of his "Plan".

What a crock of shit.

UK Government gives £10 million, USA weighs in heavily, the people of the UK gave over £10 million in under 24 hrs and there’s more to come. Now, it’s reported on UK TV this morning that the wonderful Europeon Union donate – £ million Euros! Great response, eh? Shows ‘em up in their true colours, don’t it just? Anyone out there feel as mad as me about it?
Sorry folks: The EU figure quoted above should have read ‘3 million Euros’

Roughly the same kind of "support" they gave us when the Falklands were attacked they ran away and hid,refusing to back us, refusing to even help diplomatically. Then even worse, they sanctioned France to sell the Argies the missiles to fire at our troops……Why OH Why have the British people got such short memories. The EU has never been any bloody good to anyone. Never showed any loyalty of respect to anyone except its self. Its just a huge money gobbling unaccountable criminal organisation. We would all be better to destroy it before it grows too strong and gets out of control.

Failed to assure that relief supplies intended for people in need are not stolen by corrupt politicos or war lords.
The UN is the most corrupt organization in the world.

What’s the thoughtful religious response to the earthquakes, tornadoes, and other natural disasters striking the world?

* If you’re not religious, then you don’t have a response, just an excuse to demonstrate how rude you can be. *

well the earth was cursed after sin entered…..it just part of life, everything here is going to die. But knowing that it is not the ending is the icing on the cake
