Worst Case Scenario- The Nightmare

Outline the steps Means should take in the planning process
The steps that Mean should take in the planning process is first take action when the call from the paramedics stated about a car accident and they are able to tell if a person is in stable or critical condition. Prior to the delivery of the paramedics, the supervisor/manager should meet with the physician to see if one of the patients in the ICU, that is the least needed to be transfered to the Telemetry Unit, considering that the beds are limited. In most hospitals, Telemetry Unit is on the same floor as the ICU. Notify the Telemetry Unit so that they can have a room available and the necessary equipment that will be needed per arrival. Once the physician, supervisor/manager, ICU and the Telemetry Unit are aware of the situation, this transaction of transporting these patients should go smoothly.
Identify by title the members of the hospital staff who should participate in the process.
The members of the hospital staff who should participate in the pocess is the physician, supervisior/manager, ICU staff and the Telemetry Unit staff. The physician has to give permission to transfer a patient out of the ICU to another Unit. The supervisor/manager is the one who calls the shots; notifies both Units. The ICU staff can be ready for the patient upon arrival for the Emergency Department and the Telemetry Unit staff so that they are aware if the ICU patient will be arriving. I would like to add housekeeping because once the patient transfers out of the ICU, the room has to be clean immediately.
Outline the contingency plan.
(1) Radio call from paramedics to the Emergency Department (2) arrival of patient in critical condition due to car accident (3) upon arrival to the Emergency Department, notify physician (4) patient is examined by physician and ICU is requested (5) notify ICU for patient arrival and to
