Be prepared for a Crisis before it hits!  Are you Prepared??

See below material included in Workshop

 

The impact of losing a member of the school community by a sudden death such as illness, suicide, homicide, accident, natural disaster or other sudden tragedy can have a devastating, and perhaps, long lasting impact on students and staff. Teachers, students, administrators, and families are stunned and often times overwhelmed with feelings of grief and helplessness, and thoughts of confusion, guilt or resentment that need to be addressed.

If the crisis is managed effectively, e.g., with an organized response structure specifically designed to meet a particular school’s needs, those most impacted by the crisis will be afforded the opportunity to feel valued, connected and contained, rather than feeling helpless, alone and out of control. Successful Multi-Hazard Crisis/Emergency Operations Plans are based on the thoughtful assessment of potential problems in the school environment, careful creation of a support network within and beyond the school, and the active participation of faculty, staff and others in preparing for their incident response roles.

Keys To Safer Schools.com (Keys) has drawn on a wealth of national research and years of professional experience to produce a Nationally utilized Template for schools to follow in developing a Multi-Hazard Crisis/Emergency Operations Plan tailored to their specific needs and situation. The Nationally utilized Template and the Multi-Hazard Plans produced by it have been reviewed by state officials and meet the requirements established by regulation. The most effective way to using this Template is as part of a Crisis Action Training and Workshop that involves the staff at Keys facilitating a meeting of First Responders, community stakeholders and others. The Template is used by the  Keys professional staff to guide the schools Response Team, First Responders and the community stakeholders and leaders, through the steps of developing and publishing a fully functional Multi-Hazard Plan. The following issues and considerations should help you set the stage for an effective Multi-Hazard Crisis/Emergency Operations Plan.
