Editor's Notes
- OpSB3 demonstrated ability to surge 14% open beds with just early discharges
- This is the core of surge capacity planning – not Central Standard Time mind you, but acronyms that help us organize our thinking about surge capacity. Getting all C’s may not be good in school, but it’s the first thing that needs to be done when an incident occurs – we’ll be talking about each of these in turn as we go through the modules. Need to make assignments early and firmly to get control of the situation early. Get the Cs nailed right away in a disaster. Special= special considerations

- Consultation with Dr. Peter Sarsfield, a retired Medical Officer of Health with the Northwestern Health Unit from Kenora, Ontario, Canada. He was involved in the development of the Flu Center strategy in his role as Medical officer for the Kenora Public Health. Pete that described the Flu Center as a “Safety Valve”. It would be used when healthcare demand is exceeding capacity and it could help in reducing surge to healthcare facilities.
