Abstract
A portable care facility includes at least one container defining a generally box-shaped configuration in a closed condition. The container is sized for transport and shipping and is constructed and arranged to be openable and expandable from the box-shaped configuration into a larger, operative configuration defining a space sufficient to conduct certain procedures therein. Tenting structure is provided in the container and is sized and configured to be supported over the space to define a ceiling over the space and to extend in at least one direction generally outwardly from the space to define a covered triage area.

A portable care facility comprising:
- at least one container defining a generally box-shaped configuration in a closed condition, said container being sized for transport and shipping and being constructed and arranged to be openable and expandable from said box-shaped configuration into a larger, operative configuration defining a space sufficient to conduct certain procedures therein, and
- tenting structure in said container and sized and configured to be supported over said space to define a ceiling over said space and to extend in at least one direction generally outwardly from said space to define a covered triage area.
A portable care facility comprising:
- at least one container defining a generally box-shaped configuration in a closed condition, said container being sized for transport and shipping, said container having a central chassis, and opposing structural units movably coupled to said chassis so as to be moved from a collapsed storage position to an expanded, operative position, said structural units being coupled together via opposing side panel assemblies which are constructed and arranged such that as the structural units are moved to the operative position thereof, said side panel assemblies move from a collapsed position to an extended position defining a space sufficient to conduct certain procedures therein, and tenting structure in said container and sized and configured to be supported over said space to define a ceiling over said space and to extend in at least one direction generally outwardly from said space to define a covered triage area.
