Abstract:
An insight of the building and operation of the medical rescue and assurance system for Beijing Olympic Games will help identify effective practices for design and implementation of medical rescue plans in large-scale activities held in cities. Practice-proven: large-scale activities call for systems designed in view of characteristics of medical assurance tasks of such events, and such systems must be improved all the way. Keys to operations of Olympic venues in the run-up period are setup of medical services, development of general medical procedures, management of medical teams in venues, and design of medical rescue flows. Focuses of venue operations during the games are reporting of medical information from the venues, seamless interconnection between venues and medical organizations in the city, and crisis management for medical operations on the venues.
