- EMT TYPOLOGY
After the typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda) response in the Philippines in 2013 and confirmed in the earthquake response in Nepal in 2015, a distinction was made between a Type 1 mobile and a Type 1 fixed team. This recognizes the large number of teams involved in these categories, and the difference in tasking and usage by a ministry of health between these two modalities.
