In the last decades, the Mental Health perspective has been incorporated as an important part of comprehensive health care for those affected. Thus, the conceptual change from “multiple casualty incident” (MCI) to “multiple affected incident” (MAI) focuses on the care and well-being of all people affected by an incident, not only those who have suffered physical injuries. The objective of this article is focused on finding out the possibilities of intervention with patients labeled in triage as psychological green (without affectation and/or physical injuries), based on advanced psychological intervention in emergencies (IPA). The IPA, beyond removing those affected from danger, seeks to increase their sense of control and efficacy, both to face the situation and to increase their sense of competence in the experience of subsequent trauma with respect to that experience. In this sense, recent assessment possibilities, as well as psychological first aid approaches, allow new intervention applications in emergencies such as those made possible by remote air support (drones).
