50 people being tended to,” Carrison said. “Walking into (the

providers everywhere. … It was a pure MASH unit.”
Carrison is chief of staff and chair of emergency
medicine at UMC. He’s also the medical
director for Las Vegas police and the Clark
County Fire Department, and is a
professor and chair at the University of
Nevada Las Vegas School of
Medicine.
