HICSi is a methodology for using incident command system (ICS) in a hospital/healthcare environment.
HICS assists hospitals to improve their emergency management planning, response, and recovery capabilities for planned and unplanned events.
The revision of the Hospital Incident Command System (HICSi) is being coordinated by EMSA.
