SHEET ACTION TO TAKE ON THE SITE OF THE EVENT Organising the medical pathway of the victims in the 3 zones Civil protection and public health resources The civil protection and public health response is based on interservice training sessions in the defence zones and on the equipment specific to the Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear risk (CBRN risk), held across the French territory as a whole: • Mobile Radiological Response Units (MRRU5). • Portable radiological contamination portal monitors. • Mobile Decontamination Unit – MDU (see diagram 7 on next page). • Antidotes, victim undressing and redressing kits, bags for stowing their personal effects: designated “VAA CBRN” kits. • Means of detecting and identifying chemical and radiological products. • Mobile Medical Stations (MMS) 1 and 2 containing the antidotes in particular, paediatric MMSs. • If necessary, mobile bioassay measurement means for measuring internal contamination can be deployed at the UPAA. SEE SHEET 37 18 5. There are 29 MRRUs in France and about 50 reconnaissance teams with appropriate means for detecting radiological contamination.
