Survey: Hazard and Disaster Preparedness Training for EMS

Fire departments, hazmat teams, law enforcement and others often overlook or assume that EMS is already involved in mass incident hazard and disaster planning, however, this is often not the case.

The National Fire Academy (NFA), Cybermedia Technologies, Inc. (CTEC) and EMS subject matter experts are creating online training to prepare people for EMS involvement. The students will learn how to assess their community risks and apply a planning process to multiple/mass casualty situations so they can manage the medical components of natural and manmade disasters, and target hazard incidents in their home community.

Students eligible to participate in this training include EMS chiefs, managers, planners and others who write EMS emergency/disaster plans.

The course planners are interested in hearing perspectives to help them clearly identify the people, processes, content and issues that will result in the development of successful training.
