I would like someone with emergency services experiences to share with us a little of their experience.
For example, currently in TX gulf coast, the major hospitals in the area are inaccessible by private vehicles and some have been evacuated due to flooding.
Does any one have any idea what happens to patients and resources? For example, how long do generators continue for things like ventilators and acute care units? Who are essential personnel? Scheduled surgeries are cancelled, I imaging. But what happens to emergency services, obstetrics, cath/stroke labs, etc.
