Transcript Module VII2 Development, Conduct and Evaluation of an

IAEA Training in Emergency Preparedness and Response
Standard Exercise Briefing
Module WS-014
Work Session (Drill)
Objectives
• Describe the IAEA standard exercise manual
• Make yourself familiar with the conduct of a
pre-exercise briefing
WS-014: Standard Exercise Briefing
2
How
• Please follow the briefing using the
standard exercise manual
• This briefing is the equivalent of the
briefing for controllers and evaluators
WS-014: Standard Exercise Briefing
3
Background
• Emergencies are rare but they happen
• Radiological emergencies represent the
greatest risk
• Coordination between emergency services,
radiation specialists and the medical
community is most challenging
WS-014: Standard Exercise Briefing
4
General Purpose of Exercises
• The purpose of an exercise is to improve the
response capability by:
• Identifying strengths and weaknesses
• Revealing ways in which the response can be
improved
WS-014: Standard Exercise Briefing
5
Nature of This Exercise
• Three phases
• Phase 1: on-scene response
• Phase 2: hospital emergency response
• Phase 3: long term medical issues
WS-014: Standard Exercise Briefing

Exercise Specifications
• Objectives (see manual)
• Participation (see manual)
• Constraints (see manual)
• Our exercise will be limited to

11
Scene Setup
• See Exercise Manual on Radiological
Emergency Response Exercise
• For this exercise, we will use a simplified
scene setup
• Two vehicles
• Boxes to simulate debris
• No live source
• Same number of casualties
• Same contamination pattern
WS-014: Standard Exercise Briefing
12
Master Events List
• See Exercise Manual on Radiological
Emergency Response Exercise
• Go through line by line
• Briefly explain the phase 3 tabletop
• But we will not conduct this part of the exercise

13
Important Note for the Control of
Scene Personnel
• Tag all simulated victims and witnesses
• Important for phase 2
• Tag responders as they arrive at the scene
• R-1 to R-5 are exposed and contaminated for
phase 2
• Rest are non-contaminated unless they stepped
into the contaminated area
• Not involved in phase 2
WS-014: Standard Exercise Briefing
14
Data
• Review exercise data from the manual
• Note that radiation data needs to be
customized based on the exact configuration
of the simulated emergency scene
WS-014: Standard Exercise Briefing
15
Exercise Options
• Focus on on-scene response (see manual)
• Focus on short-term medical response
(see manual)
• Focus on long term medical issues
(see manual)
• Changes in the number of patients
(see manual)

Evaluation Objectives and Criteria
• See Exercise Manual on Radiological
Emergency Response Exercise

18
Dry Run (Practice)
• We will now go through the entire scenario
line by line
• The chief controller will ask the controllers
what they do at every step of the exercise
process, starting with the pre-exercise
preparation
