In what order should MCI patients be transported based on triage colors?

Transporting patients in a Mass Casualty Incident (MCI) situation follows a systematic approach to ensure that those who need immediate medical attention are prioritized. The correct order of transport should start with Red, followed by Yellow, and then Green.

Red indicates patients who are critical and require immediate life-saving interventions. These individuals are the highest priority and must be transported first to maximize their chance of survival.

Yellow represents those who are stable but still require medical care. While these patients are not in immediate danger, they still need attention and should be transported after the Red patients.

Green indicates patients with minor injuries who can wait longer for treatment. These individuals are the lowest priority in a triage situation and are transported last because they are not in critical condition.

This systematic triage process ensures that resources are allocated effectively during an MCI, prioritizing care for those who need it most urgently.
