Being prepared and knowing what to do in case of a Natural disaster help the persons served and personnel to respond in all emergency situations. The procedures should include actions to be taken by personnel in the event of an emergency, consider any unique needs of the persons served, and be appropriate and specific to the service delivery site or location. Depending on the type of emergency, the procedure could include immediate response, evacuation, notification of the proper authorities, sheltering in place, and reporting requirements. In developing emergency procedures the organization identifies critical products, services, and operations that may be impacted in an emergency and backup systems, internal capabilities, and external resources that may be needed or accessed. |
