Why are your Department Disaster Plans Improtant?
When a real disaster happens - and it will - you will respond. Even if you freeze and do nothing - that is a response. Immediately knowing exactly what to do is the ideal response. It starts with a good department plan describing roles and is supplemented by training.

Joint Commission requires staff to know thier role in a disaster.
Managers must train their staff on wheat their roles will be during a disaster. A brief overview of staff roles can be found on the code safety badges worn on every employee's hospital ID. If any unit/department would like in person training, OEM is happy to attend a huddle.
