The Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) or Emergency Management Plan is the document that guides

The Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) or Emergency Management Plan is the document that guides (or should guide) any facility’s preparation and response. It has come a long way from the old “disaster” plan of decades gone by. Regulatory agencies expect it to be thorough, readable and workable. Staff expect it to be at their fingertips when they need it.

So what makes a good EMP? Who helps write it? Who changes it? Enforces it? You get the idea.

Should be an interesting week of discussion.

Weekly Objectives:

Describe how to develop an emergency management program.
Describe how to evaluate and test emergency management programs.

WEEK 10 DISCUSSION BOARD
Review Ennis’s EMP model. How would you improve it? Is there any crossover with other hospital department responsibilities?

Provide a table of contents for your hypothetical emergency management plan.

Remember;

every week there will be 1-2 questions that must be answered by each student. The answers should be at least 3 substantive paragraphs, well developed, referenced, and properly formatted. “Substantive” means that the writer has added to the dialogue with referenced facts or pertinent personal experience leading to a reasoned argument that advances the scholarly discussion. Learning to efficiently locate and properly reference the literature is a key component of any master’s level course. Discussion question answers must include at least one reference that is not from the assigned reading.
