NOTE: 1. Surge Availability Timeline: Emergency Triage and Inpatient Surge Planning with an asterisk in the table above requires the facility to maintain within its operational control (Kern County Service Area) the necessary equipment and resources to execute our surge plan without relying on outside support. 2. A receiving and waiting area would need to be relocated outside of ED. Consider setting up the portable tent to support this task.
