Dr. Kelly Victory opens up about her journey from emergency medicine to public health and mass casualty management. She explains how resource allocation, teamwork, and hands-on training can make the difference between life and death in disaster situations. Dr. Victory walks listeners through active shooter preparedness, the importance of triage, and why real-world drills are essential. She also reflects on the lessons learned from tragedies like Columbine and Hurricane Katrina — and how hospitals and communities can better prepare for the next crisis. The discussion turns personal as Dr. Victory shares how she manages the emotional weight of her work, the value of after-action reviews, and why she believes disaster training should start as early as grade school. Her message is clear: preparedness isn’t panic — it’s empowerment.   👉 Are you a medical professional with a story, insight, or strategy to share about career, personal, or financial success?
