This anonymous contemporary account of the worst theater fire in American history is part of a memorial volume assembled by the survivors. THE STORY OF THE FIRE. No disaster, by flood, volcano, wreck or convulsion of nature has in recent times aroused such horror as swept over the civilized world when on December 30, 1903, a death-dealing blast of flame hurtled through the packed auditorium of the Iroquois theater, Chicago, causing the loss of nearly 600 lives of men, women and children, and injuries to unknown scores. Strong words pale and appear meaningless when used in describing the full enormity of this disaster, which has no recent parallel save in the outbreaks of nature's irresistible forces. There have been greater losses of life by volcanoes, earthquakes and floods, but no fire horror of modern times has equaled this one, which in a brief half-hour turned a beautiful mi1lion-dollar theater into an oven piled high with corpses, some burned and mutilated and others almost unmarked in death. Coming, as it did, in the midst of a holiday season, when the second greatest city in the United States was reveling in the gaiety of Christmas week, this sudden transformation of a playhouse filled with a pleasure-seeking throng into an inferno filled with shrieking living and mutilated dead, came as a thunderbolt from a clear sky.

    Annals of Burns and Fire Disasters - vol. XII - n 2 - June 1999 REVIEW ARTICLE FIRE DISASTER AND BURN DISASTER: PLANNING AND MANAGEMENT Masellis M., Ferrara M.M., Gunn S.W.A. Divisione di Chirurgia Plastica e Terapia delle Ustioni, Ospedale Civico, Palermo Mediterranean Club for Burns and Fire Disasters - WHO Collaborating Centre SUMMARY. Introduction All disasters, whether flood, earthquake, cyclone, drought or extensive fire, inevitably cause upheavals not only in the physical but also in the social and economic context where they occur.
    If a disaster is of major proportions, as may be the case in an earthquakes or flood, an entire region or extensive national territory may be involved.
    The study and analysis of factors that cause a disaster, the characteristics that shape its evolution, the effects on the population and the natural environment, the instruments that can mitigate their effects, and the various ways of reestablishing the optimal living conditions of the persons and communities involved have led to the creation of the new science of Disastrology, which studies disasters from all points of view and establishes guidelines for their management.
    "Disaster medicine" considers the health aspects of disasters, in particular the study and collaborative application of the various health disciplines involved, i.e., from paediatrics, epidemiology, communicable disease, nutrition, public health, emergency surgery, social medicine, community care, humanitarian relief, and international health, to the prevention, immediate response, and rehabilitation of the health problems arising from disaster, in co-operation with other disciplines involved in comprehensive disaster management.

    Accidents, Fires, Insurance Stuff happens - been there, done that. I know. From the air, there's a different perspective where you can get a good overall view of what's happened. Fire s and floods are the most obvious issues for most of us. Sometimes it's hurricanes and tornadoes. Could even be terrorist activity. For accidents on the road, if it snarls up things up long enough, I may be able to get there before it's all cleaned up. On rare occasions, I can get there while the accident vehicles are on site. In general, though, for accident investigations, a picture or several of the intersection or area where it occurred will help. These area pictures can be either oblique or vertical (see examples below). Floods and flood damage remain for a while. If the weather allows, I can get pictures of the damage done during flooding, or at least shortly thereafter. Hurricane and tornado pictures - I don't do 'during' for these events. However, I will do 'after' pictures. It's also possible that somewhere in my stock collections, I may even have 'before' pictures. If your property is in an 'at risk' area, it may well pay to get get those shots before a predicted disaster strikes!

    Facility Disaster Mitigation
    What is an Emergency?
    An emergency is any unplanned event that can cause death or significant injuries to employees, customers or the public, or that can shut down your business, disrupt operations, cause physical or environmental damage, or threaten the facility's financial standing or public image.
    Potential Emergencies:
    • Fires Tornados Earthquakes Winter Storms Chemical Spills/Attacks Terrorism
    Emergency Management
    Emergency management is the process of preparing for, mitigating, responding to and recovering from an emergency.
    Plan Ahead
    Every year emergencies take their toll on business and industry - in lives and dollars. Business and industry can limit injuries and damages and return more quickly to normal operations if they plan ahead.
    4 Steps in the Planning Process
    • STEP 1 - Establish a Planning Team STEP 2 - Analyze Capabilities and Hazards STEP 3 - Develop the Plan STEP 4 - Implement the Plan

    Incident Command System
    The Incident Command System (ICS) provides a management structure and system for conducting on-site operations. It is applicable to small scale daily operational activities as well as major mobilizations. ICS provides command center and operational staff with a standardized operational structure and common terminology. Because of this, ICS provides a useful and flexible management system that is particularly adaptable to incidents involving multi-jurisdictional or multi-disciplinary responses. ICS provides the flexibility needed to rapidly activate and establish an organizational format around the functions that need to be performed.
