Health operating-room staff

It does not take a nationally publicized event to seriously impact a health care system even a local apartment fire can cause a regional hospital system to exceed its surge capacity. A bum center s capacity is determined by available burn beds, burn surgeons, burn nurses, support staff, operating rooms, equipment, supplies, and related resources it is a dynamic number. Surge capacity is the ability to handle up to 50% more than the normal maximum burn patient census when there is an emergency. 

For the two-unit plants in the UK (Magnox or AGR) with one control room, the normal complement of staff for one shift is illustrated in Fig. 7.1. In addition, there are industrial staff, e.g. two Operations Foremen and one Health Physics Monitor Foreman, who supervise about 20 persons of a non-academic qualification level, defined as skilled plant operators and semi-skilled plant attendants .
