Exercise Program
“To meet the applicable goals described in section 2802(b)
of the PHS Act, all Budget Period 1 HPP funding
applications must address the evaluation of state and
local preparedness and response capabilities through
exercises. Awardees must conduct annual preparedness
exercises in accordance with the Homeland Security
Exercise and Evaluation Program (HSEEP). Exercise
programs funded all or in part by HPP cooperative
agreement funding, or conducted to address the exercise
requirements reflected in this cooperative agreement,
should be built on HSEEP guidance and concepts.”
[Exercise Name]
[Date]
Exercise Plan
 Each Region PHP submitted 2012-2013 regional
exercises to the SCDHEC Exercise Plan. In July 2012,
the exercise plan was finalized during the SCDHEC
exercise planning meeting. Your region PHP has a copy
of this plan is you wish to have a copy.
[Exercise Name]
[Date]
Exercise Execution
 During the five-year project period, awardees must:
“Ensure hospitals, other healthcare organizations, and
healthcare coalitions participate in HSEEP-compliant substate
regional or statewide, functional or full-scale exercises
conducted in substate regions that encompass a healthcare
coalition. The substate regions selected are determined by the
priorities of the awardee during strategic planning. Each
substate regional or statewide, functional or full-scale exercise
must address components of Capability 6: Information Sharing
and Capability 3: Emergency Operations Coordination. Also
during this exercise, at least one healthcare preparedness
capability must be tested.”
“
[Exercise Name]
[Date]
Exercise Execution
 “During the five-year project period, awardees are to plan
for all substate regions that encompass a healthcare
coalition to exercise as outlined above and to test all
healthcare preparedness capabilities. This may require
implementation of rotation strategies across the five
budget periods to ensure different substate regional and
any statewide exercise opportunities that may cover the
state include healthcare systems. HPP awardees must
ensure that all HPP participating hospitals participate in at
least one substate regional or statewide HSEEP-based
functional or full-scale exercise during the five-year
project period.”

Capability 3 and 6
 Capabilty 3 - Emergency Operations Coordination
 Emergency operations coordination is the ability to direct and support an
event or incident with public health or medical implications by establishing
a standardized, scalable system of oversight, organization, and
supervision consistent with jurisdictional standards and practices and with
the National Incident Management System.
 Capability 6 - Information Sharing
 Information sharing is the ability to conduct multijurisdictional,
multidisciplinary exchange of health-related information and situational
awareness data among federal, state, local, territorial, and tribal levels of
government, and the private sector. This capability includes the routine
sharing of information as well as issuing of public health alerts to federal,
state, local, territorial, and tribal levels of government and the private
sector in preparation for, and in response to, events or incidents of public
health significance.

Exercise Evaluation
 Participate in the evaluation process as outlined in Capability 1: Healthcare
System Preparedness; Function 6: Improve healthcare response capabilities
through coordinated exercise and evaluation;
 Describe the role of hospitals, other healthcare organizations, and healthcare
coalitions in evaluation, development of after-action reports, and participation
in evaluation and improvement plans;
 Describe how the awardee will ensure that the lessons learned from afteraction reports are shared with the hospitals, other healthcare organizations,
and healthcare coalitions, and how their emergency operations plans will
then be modified; and
 Describe how plans for training are integrated into the exercise program; and
 HPP encourages putting after-action reports (AAR) for substate regional
healthcare coalition-based exercises on the FEMA Lessons Learned
Information Site (LLIS) at http://www.llis.dhs.gov/ .

Exercise and evaluation training
• The State and Healthcare Coalitions, in coordination with healthcare
organizations, emergency management, ESF #8, relevant response
partners, and stakeholders, provide exercise and evaluation training to
assist healthcare organizations with the concepts of exercise
coordination, implementation, and evaluation.

HSEEP Compliance
 “HSEEP compliance is defined as adherence to specific
HSEEP-mandated practices for exercise program
management, design, development, conduct, evaluation
and improvement planning.”
[Exercise Name]
[Date]
HSEEP Compliance
 “In order to be HSEEP compliant an awardee will have to
satisfy four distinct performance requirements:
 Conduct an annual training and exercise workshop and
develop and maintain a multi-year training and exercise
plan.
 Planning and conducting exercises in accordance with the
guidelines set forth in HSEEP Volumes I-III.
 Developing and submitting a properly formatted AAR/IP.
The format for the AAR/IP is found in HSEEP Volume III.
 Tracking and implementing corrective actions identified in
the AAR/IP

Exercise Scheduling/Reporting
 DHS has created a centralized, secure web-based
reporting system. SCDHEC uses The National Exercise
Schedule (NEXS) to schedule, develop, and report on
exercises. You should go to the HSEEP website and
register for access to this system.
[Exercise Name]

Exercise Options for Hospitals
 Design and conduct HSEEP compliant exercises. This
includes compliant After Action Reports, Corrective
Action Plans, and Improvement Plans.
 Participate in the planning, development, and execution
of local and statewide exercises.
