Critical incident Review - Vegas Attack: Handling a Mass Casualty Incident – Dr. Kevin Menes  
Podcast: The Debrief with Jon Becker
Published On: Wed Aug 23 2023
Description: My guest today is Dr. Kevin Menes.  Kevin is an emergency room physician and tactical team doctor who led a team that managed to treat and save hundreds of patients following the active sniper attack in Las Vegas on October 1, 2017.  Kevin’s insights into the Las Vegas attack are unique and offer us clear lessons learned in preparing for mass casualty. Too often active shooter preparation ends at the tactical level and fails to consider the effect on all involved agencies.  This discussion with Kevin clearly shows that saving lives after a mass killing event is dependent upon the preparation and training for all of the responding organizations.Books RecommendedThe Mission, the Men, and Me - Pete Blaber - ISBN-13:‎ 978-0425236574The Way Things Work - David Macaulay  - ISBN: 0-395-42857-2The Floaters Log - Ron Krome - ISBN-13: ‎ 978-142418282Sites RecommendedKevin Menes, MD | Emergency Physicians Monthly (epmonthly.com)Contact InfoEmail: iamkevinmenes@gmail.com Instagram: @menes.resuscitation Facebook: menes.resuscitation LinkedIn: Kevin Menes MD Twitter: @kvnmns
