LLNL Emergency Plan <br />Rev-23 <br />October 2017 <br /> <br /> 90 <br />Medical supplies for the administration of chelation therapy for patients with internal <br />radiological contamination are stored in the Fire Department ambulances for transport to <br />Stanford Health Care-ValleyCare and Eden Medical Centers as well as at the main Health <br />Services site. This equipment and medication are supplied and maintained by the HSD. <br />9.4 Transportation and Evacuation <br />Injured personnel are transported from the scene to either Health Services or the appropriate <br />offsite facility (see Section 9.1 above) by LLNL-owned ambulance (two at Site 200; one at <br />Site 300) or private ambulance arranged by ACFD. Personnel with known or suspected <br />contamination are transported to the decontamination entrance of the HSD. <br />Critically injured and chemically-, biologically-, or radiologically-contaminated victims are <br />transported directly to Eden Medical Center by the Fire Department. Air ambulance service is <br />requested in accordance with Alameda County critical trauma protocols and ACFD emergency <br />operations policy and procedure by the IC. The ACRECC is responsible for dispatch of the next <br />available air ambulance. LLNL will provide equipment and expertise, as needed, at the receiving <br />facilities in support of chemically, biologically, or radiologically contaminated victims in <br />accordance with the MOUs. <br />Communication to the receiving facility is the responsibility of the initiating organization. LLNL <br />will communicate in accordance with the Alameda County Emergency Medical Services policy <br />and procedure, and will also notify the HSD of the transport. Medical staff at the HSD will <br />contact the receiving hospital regarding personnel transported from either medical facility. <br />Special evacuation procedures are not needed for HSD. <br />9.5 Communications <br />In addition to dispatching for Site 200 and Site 300, ACRECC provides dispatch service for a <br />large portion of eastern Alameda County. ACRECC is located at the Site 200 and operates under <br />Alameda County Emergency Medical Services and the California Governor’s Office of <br />Emergency Services policies and procedures. When operational, the EOC monitors 400 MHz <br />emergency radio traffic between the IC and dispatch. This radio is also monitored by the HSD <br />during normal work hours. The IC will keep the HSD informed about the status of situations <br />involving injured personnel. During normal work hours, the HSD has responsibility for <br />notifications to Laboratory management and family members with regard to ill or injured <br />employees; outside of normal work hours, the LEDO has notification responsibility. In the event <br />of an Operational Emergency, LLNL will utilize the State ICS for communication and <br />mobilization of resources at the direction of the IC . <br />Additional communication tools include the WebEOC communication system and the VERG <br />network. The WebEOC communication system is used by the EOC and the DOCs to record and <br />monitor information during Operational Emergency events.
