خرید Chapter Disaster Management

The keys to the success of any disaster management program are the identification of vulnerabilities, preparation to address identified weaknesses, and continued education aimed toward risk mitigation. Whether accomplished through mass education, hands-on training, emergency services integration, or simple communication, a comprehensive disaster management plan can help even the most remote regions to succeed under duress. A robust disaster response begins with extensive preparation through preventative measures. In conjunction with these preventative measures, risk mitigation develops plans to prevent the unnecessary loss of life or property. Preparation, the final phase before the actual disaster event, enacts the actual mitigation measures identified in previous steps. The response phase, the first portion to take place after the actual event, focuses on addressing the actual threats and protecting public interests. In this phase, the Emergency Operations Center and Incident Command System establish a chain of command. Lines of communication are created, human casualties undergo triage, and assets are dispersed in the most effective manner possible to treat all those in need. After the conclusion of the immediate response, the community as a whole begins to rebuild, and new opportunities for change are identified. With recovery, the cycle continues as lessons learned from the prior incident drive future prevention, mitigation, and preparation efforts.KeywordsDisaster managementMass casualtyRisk mitigationIncident command
