Complete an annual Hazard Vulnerability Analysis (HVA) that evaluates what could happen, the likelihood of the event occurring, and the magnitude of the problems created by an event. Once the HVA is complete, response plans are developed in the form of an Emergency Operations Plan (EOP). b. Develop and maintain an EOP to implement emergency management concepts before, during, and after planned and real-world incidents. c. Organize and implement drills and improvement projects to mitigate, prepare for, respond to, and recover from emergencies. d. Address Joint Commission elements of performance to meet or exceed standards through the assessment of performance indicators. e. Provide educational opportunities for employees at all levels in order to establish and sustain emergency management competencies.

Sustain emphasis on preparing for unplanned incidents. Maintain momentum created by combining the Safety and Security Manual with the EP&R Guide into a (Red) Book used at the unit level. • At the unit level (e.g. Cyber exercise comment to integrate downtime checklist into Red Book and S&S support for developing a smart phone App for use “in the moment”). • Emphasize and continue creating Area Specific Plans that appear helpful at the Manager/Director levels. • Tie both of these into the Emergency Operations Plan (EOP). 2013 Objectives Exercise • Quarterly Focus with additional emphasis on Downtime procedures (WPV, Severe Weather, Hazmat, Evacuation) • TableTop Exercises (TTX) for the Emergency Management Working Group to facilitate Hospital Command Center Operations • Mature Sub-Incident Management Teams (e.g. Clinops, Ambulatory, M.D.’s) • Full Scale and Functional Exercising (e.g. Evacuation, Hazmat, IT downtime) 2013 Objectives Mass educate to reach thousands (vs exercising to reach 100’s) • Workplace Violence • Mass Casualty Incidents • Evacuation Formalize Response Teams • Fridays Before Five Teams • First Response Teams from Transportation, Medical Transport Program, SRO, and HSPP.
