– Case study about Amtrak 188 or train/ plane multi-casualty medical response that occurred in Philadelphia. 

-The case study should discuss the impacts and outcomes of the incident. How it has managed by emergency management agencies. How the public health and it’s facilities responded to the incident. Consider the responders, transportation, emergency authorities, triage of the victims, have the four phases of disaster  (mitigation, preparedness,  response, recovery) been performed? (These are my thoughts, they are not required)

– Length: 4-5 pages (not including title page, abstract and references). Use New Times Roman 12 font with 1” margins and APA style. The references should be in APA style. 

– Useful abbreviations: Federal emergency management agency (FEMA), Chief executive officer (CEO),  EMS.
