WIISARD utilizes wireless technology to improve the care of victims following a mass casualty disaster. The WIISARD Scene Manager device (WSM) is designed to enhance the collection and accessibility of real-time data on victims, ambulances and hospitals for disaster supervisors and managers. We recently deployed WSM during a large-scale disaster exercise. The WSM performed well logging and tracking victims and ambulances. Scene managers had access to data and utilized the WSM to coordinate patient care and disposition.
