Review the description of lyric poetry on page 791. While most risk managers and EOC members may have an understanding of many of the natural hazards their hospital might face (e.g., hospitals in "Tornado Alley" are likely familiar with this hazard), it is wise to do more research. Mitigation activities reduce loss of life and property by lessening the impact of disasters. Disaster Drills and see theChecklist for Disaster Drill Planning. Media coverage of several recent natural disasters highlighted providers who demonstrated little to no advanced emergency planning and woefully inadequate responses, placing patient lives at risk and in some cases resulting in patient deaths. Other possibilities include holding a group discussion led by a facilitator, using a narrated, clinically relevant emergency scenario and a set of problem statements, directed messages, or prepared questions designed to challenge the emergency plan (42 CFR 482.15[d][2][ii][B]). The HVA should focus on "the capacities and capabilities that are critical to preparedness for a full spectrum of emergencies or disasters." https://wayback.archive-it.org/3926/20140108162209/http://www.hhs.gov/news/press/2011pres/05/20110505a.html, Willingham AJ.

This guidance article touches on operations of the emergency operations committee (EOC) and on the planning and mitigation elements of a comprehensive EOP and includes links to resources that can assist organizations in complying with CMS's emergency preparedness final rule. In light of these trends, the nation's health security and its readiness for public health emergencies are high priorities (ASPR TRACIE "Hospital Preparedness Program"). involves key personnel discussing simulated scenarios in an informal setting. As disasters have continued to occur throughout the United States and the greater global community, an increasing number of organizations have realized a role during disaster response and recovery to promote healthier outcomes in communities and regions. 2017 Jun [cited 2018 Apr 13]. Los Angeles County has more than 100 acute care hospitals serving 10 million people; it received a federal grant to coordinate planning, training, exercises, and participation in developing a regional disaster plan. (3) The unified EOP must include a coordinated communication plan. CMS's CMS requires development of policies and procedures that support the HVA process and the comprehensive implementation of the EOP. The EOC should consider whether to recommend the creation of a separate clinical care committee or subcommittee that would determine how a hospital's resources can be best used to meet community needs and develop clinical policies and procedures required to support the response to an emergency. For example, policies must address providing subsistence needs for staff and patients in case they are expected to shelter in place. Steps in the National Preparedness System include the following: The "whole community" means that the emergency operational plan is guided by two principles: "involving people in the development of national preparedness documents" and "ensuring their roles and responsibilities are reflected in the content of the materials" (FEMA "Whole Community"). EOC membership could include personnel from departments such as the following: Hospitals should have an established EOC to coordinate emergency operation efforts within the hospital or healthcare system, as well as to plan activities with nearby healthcare facilities; local, state, and federal agencies; and others. Other differences include the crossing of jurisdictional boundaries; a more coordinated relationship among public and private sector entities becomes necessary; and performance standards for responding entities change and reflect disaster-relevant priorities. Organizations must have "a system to contact appropriate staff, patients' treating physicians, and other necessary persons in a timely manner to ensure continuation of patient care functions throughout the facilities and to ensure that these functions are carried out in a safe and effective manner."

Organizations should also prepare for maintaining sewage utilities and hazardous waste disposal during emergency events (CMS "Final Rule" 482.15[b][1][ii][D]). https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3038369/ PubMed: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21251426 doi: 10.1503/cjs.036910, Milstein K, Rosenbaum S.
