Florida-1 DMAT

Thank you for your interest in the FloridaOne Disaster Medical Assistance Team (FloridaOne DMAT),    which is under the US Department of Health and Human Services, National Disaster Medical System Section.   Established by the federal government, the National Disaster Medical System (NDMS) provides a cooperative partnerships between public and private entities that work with communities to provide emergency health and medical  services in times of a crisis.

Although our main reason for existence is to respond to natural or man-made disasters, such as hurricanes, earthquakes, industrial accidents, major transportation accidents, terrorist attacks, weapons of mass effects (WME) and armed conflicts, often resulting in mass causalities and patients causing a hospital surge, FloridaOne DMAT is always ready for the call, ANYTIME, ANYWHERE.  

 FloridaOne DMAT's  mission however, even with the thousands of dollars of inventory and equipment,  would be useless in a disaster if not for the dedicated, multitalented, caring professionals giving time and experience to make someone’s disaster a bit more tolerable. FloridaOne DMAT is comprised of people like yourself with expertise in the fields of medicine, mental health, communications, administration and logistics. Being a team that operates with cohesive teamwork has carried FloridaOne DMAT further than most, and we do not intend to slow down. With your completed application, you can become a member of FloridaOne DMAT and can stand with a team whose response ethics are second to none.
