Emergency Management: Definition Emergency Management is the discipline and profession of applying science, technology, planning and management to deal with extreme events that can injure or kill large numbers of people, do extensive damage to property, and disrupt community life. Emergency Management is an all hazards approach to planning for disasters within a community. Emergency Management brings together all areas of government, private sector, private non-profit sector, faith-based community to mitigate a crisis or local disaster.

Emergency Planning – 5 w’s Who ? – (in NJ) NJ State Police/OEM, 21 counties, 565 municipalities What ? – natural, technological, civil disasters When ? – 4 phases of disaster: mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery Where ? – everywhere: state, counties, municipalities, schools, hospitals, businesses, PNP’s Why ? – Emergency planning saves lives, protects property, and the environment How ? – use standard practices

Emergency Management in NJ Municipal County State Federal “bottom up” approach “Phases” model: mitigation, preparedness, response, recovery, prevention

Model: Disaster Cycle

Types of Disasters Natural Technological Civil

Community Impacts and Protective Actions “Notice” vs. “No-Notice” Power and utility Debris Road Closures Property Damage Death, injury Evacuation Shelter in Place Closing Emergency Services and Hospital - Surge

Protective Action Recommendations Shelter-in-Place, “Lockdown” Evacuation How are you notified of these decisions ?

Term to Know: “State of Emergency” Allows local authorities to deploy resources quickly Can be local or statewide Will be publicly announced, media, social media Know: what is being asked of the public ? – e.g. don’t drive, curfews, sometimes no public actions are required

Action Step: Stay informed Identify your local and county OEM Officials – links to counties Stay informed – opt in, connect, follow, “like”

Identify where you might be vulnerable – your local Office of Emergency Management can help

Second Step - Facilities: Mitigate Risk Structural – clear debris, secure shelves, maintain properties, explore generator for back-up power. Prepare to shelter in place: water, non-perishable food/snacks, secure area in the event of tornadic activity Resources for evacuation – insure people with mobility impairments can exit – evac chairs or assigned staff Would staff need to stay overnight ? What is needed to support this ?

Incident Command System “Incident Commander” leads field response. What about your organization – who will interface with emergency responders ?

Disaster Recovery Work with the larger community, not just emergency responders Long term recovery – centralized systems FEMA’s role regarding disaster survivors Physical recovery – injuries, debris, mold, repairs
