Emergency Action Plan For Emergency Personnel

Oncor electric is a regulated distribution and transmission business of the private sector and owned by a limited number of investors. Oncors’ responsibility is to deliver reliable and safe electricity to the private sectors, so they can have the power to maintain productivity by keeping the backbone of our economy (oncor 2012). We are known as the “poles and wires” infrastructure company, we manage our business like the private sector does and our company invests in the latest technology and by putting our employees and customers first. When restoring outages due to large storms or natural disasters we respond quickly and safely to restore power to the critical infrastructure. Electric service providers are required to notify the Commission’s Emergency Management Response Team (EMRT) to be involved in the event of a major emergency and natural disaster that occurs such as hurricanes and ice storms (puc.texas.gov 2009). With the EMRT, they help to coordinate power restoration while communicating regularly with any affected electric service providers before, during, and after an event.

After being trained and taking every precaution, there still a threat of someone getting hurt, from the performer to someone in the audience.

The current communication systems between first responders and other emergency officials have many existing problems. The first issue in communication between first responders is the inability to communicate over a completely wireless system. Wireless communication systems allow first responders to communicate, no matter the situation in which they are thrown. Communication through wireless systems are also more efficient, due to the updated technology that is used for wireless systems. First responders are also unable to communicate with exactly who they want,

Right out of the blocks, near the very start of the race, one of the runners was badly knocked down, and in a quarter-mile race at such a high level of competition, fractions of a second determine the winner. Anyone knocked down is quite simply out of the race. But accidents like this are sometimes unavoidable in the crowded running of the competitors. Even though he was far behind, this competitor leaped back to the track and continued to race with all-out speed and effort. The fact that he was twenty yards away from the nearest competitor and made the attempt to rejoin the short race seemed ridiculous. Nonetheless, this man ran at such an astonishing pace that the spectators were goggle-eyed and on their feet, mesmerized by the unfolding

Today bull riding is the fastest growing and most dangerous sanctioned sport in the United States. There is also a lot of controversy behind the sport when concerning the care of the bovine used. To have a better understanding of the sport we will look at the history and talk about scoring and care of the bulls involved in the event. I have chosen “The History of Bull Riding” from the American Cowboy Magazine, “ABBI: Raising Bucking Bulls for Profit and Pleasure” from the American Cattleman Magazine, “Bucking Tradition, Bull-Riding Fans Cheer for the Beasts” from The Wall Street Journal, and “Eight Seconds to Glory-Bull Riding” from the Southern States website for this paper.

As a part of any risk management planning there should be an emergency medical plans. As athletic injuries occur during the event of a game or practice, the athletic training staff must assist with the planning to provide the proper

Contestants under the age 0f 18 can compete in their local rodeos but cannot go pro with their riding. Bull riding requires strength, agility, and flexibility. Many of the riders workout daily. They do crossfit workouts and practice riding bulls. They don’t lift many heavy weights because they would develop slow reflexes. Some riders can take lessons to learn new techniques for ways to hold on and ride better. This sport requires mental toughness and preparation with extreme courage. Their mental mindset can either make their ride or break it. They learn from their negative rides and try to keep a positive belief. “About anyone with some athletic ability can be successful in bull riding, but there has to be the desire and mindset in order to succeed” (“Buchman”). Many riders believe their mindset in the biggest part in their rides. They practice their grips and balance and have many different ways to ride. The man’s hand in his balance point. He uses his thighs and knees and squeeze the bull’s sides for a better grip. He needs to stay close to the center of the bull so he can keep from sliding off during a spin. His free hand is used to stay away from the bull. His his free hand touches the bull of himself the ride is over. If his hand comes out of his rope the ride is over also. He can carefully wrap his hand to secure himself in the saddle, but this can also backfire with a broken hand if he gets caught. Before his ride,

"When those things aren't dealt with properly, they can result in fatalities," Walker said. "There are also concerns with sudden heart issues. If one of those occur for either an athlete or a spectator, you want to have someone who is trained to be there and you aren't likely to have that among the general

Work health and safety regulations cover many problems that often arise on the field as a result of injuries. These include direct injuries that may result in excessive bleeding. In this case, the no blood policy is followed to ensure the injured player is safely, effectively and accurately treated and other players or trainers are not at risk of contamination. A concussion guideline is pertained that are set to explain what concussion is, how to prevent it in rugby, and how to treat it, thus ensuring players are not at a high risk of such an injury whilst playing. The concussion guideline states that any player with a suspected concussion must be removed from training or the game and seek medical assistance, to reduce risk of serious brain damage. The medical policies explain many protocols for injuries both on and off the field to allow players the safety and confidence in playing, knowing

- The doctor will make sure that the concussion isn’t life threatening, then will proceed to further evaluate the severity

Provide an emergency communication resource to remote and/ or unmonitored areas of the CTC Killeen campus.

These three incidents of sports illustrates that injuries can be unpleasant in any sports given and athletes have great amount of risks while they continue their game in the field, in order to amuse their viewers (Bird 91). Apart from the examples mentioned above, there are several small and large accidents that have occurred in the past and they have made the life of sportsmen bitter and even their future uncertain, with respect to their ability to work.

The purpose of the Emergency Preparedness Plan is to save lives and prevent injuries in case of emergencies such as nuclear attack, fire, natural disaster, civil disorder or other, and provide the necessary best practices to ensure all possible and relevant forms of communicating with our faculty, staff, students, and parents. Mrs. Patricia Harris of the International Studies Elementary Charter School was interviewed about the International Studies Elementary Charter School’s Emergency Management Plan and the role of the school counselor during emergencies. Surprisingly, the school counselor does not play as important of a role than one would have thought. Although, the counselor does serve as one of the Designated School Emergency Team Members, some the tasks that would seem likely the counselor would perform, are performed by other administrators. Tasks such as talking to parents or being there for the students are performed by the principal while the school counselor is delegated to direct traffic. Based on the Emergency Management Plan, it would seem that the school counselor’s role is still not clearly understood. With all the expertise that counselors can bring to a crisis situation, it’s disappointing that counselors are assigned such a miniscule task as delegating traffic. Counselor Harris did discuss the Dougherty County School System’s Crisis Team. That team is

Disasters, whether natural or manmade, can happen anytime and anywhere, without warning. An earthquake, hurricane, tornado, fire, or hazardous material spill or even an act of terrorism can happen
