Mass Casualties

A hospital scenario where a massive amount of patients come in all at once--possibly more than can be handled.

This then leads to a triage that needs to be done where the doctors put patients into categories, who needs surgery immediately, who can wait, and who's most likely to die.
There was a bad accident today and the hospital got hit with mass casualties.
