Product Description

Product Description

The Joint Commission Emergency Management Toolkit offers a compilation of checklists, sample exercises and drills, after-action reports, and more, to help emergency management (EM) leaders in all health care settings comply with Joint Commission requirements and best practices.
 
Focusing on the need for health care organizations (HCOs) to prepare for and manage any and all emergencies they may encounter, this book includes tools and resources for an all-hazards approach to emergency management. In addition, the book provides disaster-specific tools for HCOs that prioritize those particular types of emergencies in their hazard vulnerability analyses. The tools are organized into four sections that address the following:
  1. Joint Commission EM requirements and building an emergency management program from a solid hazard vulnerability analysis
  2. Support for creating written emergency operations plans (EOPs) for specific health care settings
  3. Tools that help facilitate continuity of operations, including planning tools and hazard-specific disaster response and recovery tools
  4. Assessment and evaluation tools that support staff training, including emergency exercises, scenarios, and after-action reports.
 
Key Topics
  • Comprehensive EM program for all health care settings
  • Hazard vulnerability analysis (HVA) for any type of health care setting
  • Emergency operations plan (EOP) for any type of health care setting
  • Six critical areas of emergency management (communications, patient care and management, staff management, resources and assets, safety and security, and utilities)
  • Four phases of emergency management (mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery)
 
Key Features
  • A collection of practical tools that tie to specific EM standards, following an all-hazards approach
  • All tools available as downloadable, customizable templates, so organizations can adapt for their own needs
  • Planning, mitigation, response, and recovery tools for specific types of emergencies—natural disasters and human-caused emergencies
  • Tools specific to the unique needs of certain types of health care settings
