escue frontlines and who enter the accident site first. If personnel who respond to the<br />

call has medical and rescue experience, it may reduce the number of casualties.<br />

Although CKS Airport has already started EMTI training of first line firefighting and<br />

rescue personnel, this function has not been mentioned in the emergency response<br />

procedures.<br />

2.3.10.5 Hospital Spread Plan<br />

Section 3.7 of the ICAO Airport Emergency Procedure Handbook states that hospitals<br />

should have an emergency plan for accidents. This would ensure that the hospital<br />

would be able to provide the site with a medical team. Moreover, hospitals should<br />

have the capability of handling airline incidents in the form of qualified personnel and<br />

appropriate equipment and facilities. The emergency plan should also include a form<br />

listing all the hospitals in the vicinity and further categorize special injuries such<br />

burns, and not to use up the resources of the nearby hospitals.<br />

4.1.7 of the ICAO Airport Emergency Procedure Handbook states that designated<br />

hospitals complete the following steps:<br />

Transport medical doctors as well as a medical team to deal with external injuries to<br />

the site of the incident as soon as notification is received.<br />

Provide medical services when the injured reaches the treatment area.<br />

Ensure that when emergencies occur, appropriate doctors, nurses, operation facilities,<br />

psychiatric treatment unit, surgical team, and blood bags are fully prepared.<br />

A look at the CKS Airport medical rescue support group and capabilities’ form of the<br />

“Implementation Highlights of CKS Airport Aircraft Accident and Incident Handling<br />

Procedure” does not list the special capabilities of each hospital to be provided to the<br />

medical coordinators as reference when assigning the wounded to hospitals. Support<br />

agreements signed with the hospitals fail to list their capabilities and operation<br />

procedures during emergency situations.<br />

2.3.10.6 Categorization and care of injuries<br />

Chapter 9 of the ICAO Airport Emergency Procedure Handbook states the principle<br />

by which injury examinations are categorized, standardized injury identity card and its<br />

uses, care principle of similar categories, and a detailed operation procedure for the<br />

control of injuries. The “Implementation Highlights of CKS Airport Aircraft Accident<br />

and Incident Handling Procedure” marks the aircraft failure treatment rescue map;<br />

wound list (injury examination form) yet does not include a detailed standard<br />

procedure (see Appendix 14).<br />
