Regional Mass Casualty Support Units (RMSCU)

The Mass Casualty Support Units in Region IV are strategically located across the Region and are used as a support system for Mass Casualty Incidents within Massachusetts EMS Region IV and Massachusetts.  They offer CMED communications  and medical supplies for major disasters twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.  The RMCSU can only be activated through the CMED Center via Med 4 or the Med channel assigned to the incident.
 
 

Below you will find a listing of the supplies on the trailer as well as links to the Educational Program on the RMCSU as well as the policies associated with requesting the units.
