Arcade, NY - Arcade Fire Department, in coordination with Farmersville Fire Department, conducted a mass casualty incident drill at Scout Haven involving summer campers and staff.
The exercise focused on rapid triage, ongoing patient assessment, and accountability tracking in a simulated large-scale emergency. Participants acting as victims added realism, allowing responders to operate in conditions similar to an actual incident.
The training provided valuable experience in managing multiple patients and strengthened preparedness for complex emergency scenarios.
