The implementation of an emergency plan serves to:
Ensure that all individuals involved in its execution are aware of it and to verify its effectiveness
Integrate the plan into a higher-level plan.
To activate it after its activation.
Declare its validity by publishing it in the corresponding official bulletin.
The most suitable protocols and organization for each group, as well as their needs regarding human and material resources:
Are collected in the inventory of means and resources.
Are specified in the action plan of each group.
Are planned in detail in the emergency plan itself.
Are decided in each situation, depending on how the event unfolds.
Exercises are useful for:
Starting the training of personnel, which is later completed with theoretical training.
Assessing the set of planned measures.
Verifying if the group's action plan is well planned.
Evaluating the effectiveness of the coordination and direction of the device.
The indicators that will be used to evaluate a drill:
They are standardized and the same for all drills.
They are selected at the end of the drill, depending on deficits that have been observed during its development.
They should not be known by the people who plan the drill.
They should be anticipated when planning the drill.
The evaluation of an emergency plan:
Establishes its degree of effectiveness.
Is carried out after the plan is completed and before its first activation occurs.
Is done once the first activation of the plan has been resolved.
Is always carried out by external people who have not participated in the development and implementation of the plan.
If an emergency plan provides for using a certain indicator for evaluation, but does not detail how the measurement should be made or how it should be expressed:
Nothing happens, as long as each team details how they obtained each data point.
The results for that indicator obtained at different times or by different teams may yield values that are not comparable if they have applied different methodologies.
The results for that indicator will be comparable anyway, because even if the method of obtaining the data varies, the final result will be the same in any case.
Nothing happens, the indicators are standardized.
The maintenance of an emergency plan is carried out:
Every two years.
After each activation of the plan.
With the frequency planned in the plan itself.
At the end of the implementation and before activation.
The exercises carried out during the implementation phase:
Allow evaluating the overall effectiveness of the plan.
Are organized and directed by the plan director.
Involve all groups included in the plan.
Are a function of the person responsible for each group.
Which would not be a parameter of special interest as an indicator of the quality of an emergency plan:
Media coverage achieved.
Number of incidents with emergency vehicles.
Response time.
Number of assists during the alarm phase.
The necessary actions to keep the plan operational are called:
Maintenance of the plan.
Activation of the plan.
Implementation of the plan.
Evaluation of the plan.
