1.1. Purpose. Major incidents can quickly overwhelm medical units at Air Force medical treatment facilities (MTFs) and can pose significant threats to Air Force installations worldwide. This publication provides guidance for medical units to plan, prepare, and employ assigned assets for the initial installation medical response to an incident at home stations (i.e., fixed-site airbases), using an all-hazards approach. It also establishes a manning and equipment framework to guide resource allocation. Initial response, as used in this AFTTP, is considered the initial phases after an event has occurred or been detected. Initial installation medical response includes crisis and consequence management designed to rescue and stabilize casualties, contain contamination, and preserve evidence.
