Whakaari / White Island Eruption: The First 6 Hours
I was the on-call Medical Director for St John on the afternoon of the 9th of December. At 1427hrs I was rung by our Clinical Co-ordination desk and advised that White Island had erupted and there were “100 status 1 and 2 patients 50km off-shore” and no further details were available. The afternoon unfolded from there. In this presentation I will provide an overview of the initial pre-hospital phase of care of the patients involved in the White Island eruption covering both the time-line and the good and the bad of how things unfolded.
