Emergency Response Plan

Emergency Response Plan

An effective emergency response plan provides the guidance for employees to take swift action to evacuate, shelter or lockdown that can save lives in the initial minutes of an emergency situation.  When an emergency happens, healthcare employers must be prepared to keep their staff, patients, and visitors safe.

Part of the implementation of an emergency response plan is to review the plan with employees to prepare them for their individual roles and responsibilities and the actions they must take when an emergency occurs by reviewing the emergency response plan and training them on emergency response actions.  General training also addresses threats, hazards, and protective actions as well as notification, warning, and communications procedures.

This course describes the purpose and key elements of an emergency response plan, details the types of emergencies that can occur and provides the life-saving actions employees need to know to protect themselves, patients and visitors.
