the disaster plan!
What am I supposed to do?
Hospital emergency management has changed over the past few years...
Until recently, hospitals planned response to mass
casualty disasters (Alert 1), fire, and a few natural
disasters (tornado, earthquake) that could
impact the facility.

Emergency Management has evolved beyond response planning. It includes:

Because of the numbers and kinds of emergencies that can impact a hospital, most begin planning with a basic infrastructure...

What is HEICS?
• An “all-hazards” command structure
• A universal link with outside resources
HEICS provides...
• A dependable chain of command• Improved communication through common
language• Flexibility• Prioritization of tasks• Organized documentation system• Effective mutual aid planning
The Fayette County Healthcare Emergency Planning Committee has adopted HEICS.As a result, all acute care hospitals will begin using the HEICS structure.
HEICS Tools
• Organization chart• Job Action Sheets • Forms
Basic Units of HEICS Organization • Incident Commander• Section Chiefs• Directors• Unit Leaders• Officers
+
Each situation is unique and requires a different implementation
strategy.
Some positions will need to be filled immediately. Others may not be needed for hours or days.
Some may not be needed at all.
= Command Center
PI OfficerSafety OfficerSecurity OfficerLiaison
Five sections…one mission...
To respond to the emergency at hand.• Command Center • Logistics• Planning• Finance• Operations
Command CenterDefines the mission and ensures its
completion.
LogisticsProvides for a working environment and adequate materials to meet the
overall medical objective.
PlanningDetermines and provides for the
