In case of a horrific disaster you’re always supposed to have a plan of action, and in case it doesn’t work you’re in need of a backup plan. For example, pretend as if a zombie apocalypse has occurred and we are playing the role of the policemen and firemen in the community that has just been attacked by the infected. Our job is to ensure that the women, men, and children are safe. However in order to protect the city we need to evacuate the people, communicate to the survivors we were left behind, find a means of transporting the citizens to safe locations, and shelter the ones who no longer have a home or a safe place to live temporarily.
Our first step is to evacuate the citizens before they are attacked by the infected, but we must

We will visit as many houses, facilities, and many other buildings to locate everyone. The police department will be in charge of making sure everyone exits the building safely, to check people for infection, and to direct the non-effected to the nearest escape route. Before we leave we will instruct the citizens to pack lightly with essentials such as food, bottled water, and first aid kits. Also, we want to take the highest safety precautions when dealing with infected because we do not want any other to become infected so masks will be handed out for airborne diseases.
To continue the evacuation process the police department will direct and lead the citizens that will travel on foot. With traveling on foot heavy firearms will be handled by the police in order to protect the citizens in case of an attack. With the firearms, some of the first aid kits and food rations will travel with those on foot in order to prevent as many stops or delays in time. To travel as quickly, effectively, and no casualties is the main goal. A scouting party will be above in a helicopter to see any infected that might have slipped our previous scouting.
Along with the police department, the fire department will transport anyone with special needs, disabilities, and basically anyone who cannot walk distances to the safe locations. In transporting these citizens: cars, buses, RVs, ATVs, and any other type of mobile
What is the evacuation procedure on this site in the event of an emergency?, please state exactly what do you have to do.
Having these plans in place give the Disaster Recovery team the instructions they need when disaster strikes
According to http://www.ready.gov/business/implementation/emergency explains the steps that need to be taken and the importance of an emergency plan. “When an emergency occurs, the first priority is always life safety. The second priority is the stabilization of
Residents will be taken to an evacuation centre run by the local council. Staff should take spare clothes but essentionals such as food, drink and bedding will be provided, essential things such as medication and care items such as feeder beakers and baby bottles should also be taken if possible.
“Everybody! We must evacuate the city! The Americans will attack the city soon. Leave all your belongings behind, the Organisation will take care of them. Follow the soldiers.”
These consist of bomb alerts, fire evacuation and first aid. These procedures are produced to give help to everyone at the place of the emergency. Everyone, especially adults must be aware of what to follow during an emergency to ensure everyone stays safe.
Disaster relief operations are complex systems having more to them than just a response mechanism. They require a significant amount of pre-planning.

These prevention interventions would be started as early as the 2nd phase, and throughout the 5th phase. I would enroll the collaboration of the CDC, FEMA, Red Cross, National Guards, other military personnel, medical staff, volunteers and myself. The more man power there is available to screen the people, the more that can get done and more effectively.
Explain the importance of having an emergency plan in place to deal with unforeseen incidents
The emergency events caused by infectious disease, natural or anthropogenic causes with the potential to overwhelm or otherwise disrupt routine local capacities due to their timing, scale or unpredictability should be communicated properly and routinely which requires rapid knowledge transfer and uptake (Khan et al., 2017, p. 2).
In some instances, COPs may find themselves in dangerous situations where there may be many casualties or situations that my demand that the medical staff needs to protect themselves as much as they need to protect their patients- the COPs. As much as evacuation is essential, there is need to provide adequate information through information sharing systems. This can be classified under their preventive role in a bid to approach the job in a proactive manner. Through this the COPs may have basic and fundamental knowledge of what to do in certain
The Scarlet Letter, a novel written by Nathaniel Hawthorne, is a novel that takes place in the town of Boston, Massachusetts in 1642. Hester Prynne, the main character of the story, commits the sin of adultery. Because of this sin, she is "blessed" with a child named Pearl. Her punishment is to wear a scarlet letter “A" on her chest for the rest of her life, which affects the way the townspeople look and act around her. Also, she must stand on the scaffold in the town for three hours for the whole town to recognize her grave sins. The man who should be standing upon the scaffold along with her and Pearl is the town minister, Dimmesdale. He is presented as a weak character because of his fear of losing his beloved reputation as such a holy
According to the stats, Christianity in America is declining. A massive research on religion changes from 2007 to 2014 in America showed that Christianity in America has dropped from being the religion of 78.4% to 70.6% to Americans, while those who identify with unaffiliated has risen 6.7% (America’s Changing Religious Landscape). The drop in Christianity, according to the study, is “driven mainly by declines among mainline Protestants and Catholics” (America’s Changing Religious Landscape). A quick observation can tell a person that the percent of Christians going down is about equal to the percent rise of the unaffiliated. Some people might assume that the drop in Christianity comes from the fact that more people are realizing that it is
The overall topic areas for this research article are electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) and depression. The research question for this article is; is twice-weekly high-dose unilateral ECT inferior to twice-weekly moderate-dose bilateral ECT and which therapy has the least cognitive side effects? The hypothesis for this research question is that twice-weekly high-dose unilateral ECT will be as effective as twice-weekly moderate-dose bilateral ECT, but will have less cognitive side effects. Overall, the aims of this study were to compare the short-term and long-term effectiveness and side effects of twice-weekly moderate-dose bitemporal ECT and twice-weekly high-dose unilateral ECT for severe depression over six months.
