Recent events have proven that we need to review many of the lessons that we assumed we had learned and known in the field of emergency preparedness. We have come to live in a world where critical events can strike anywhere, and at any time, placing you in the situation where you are required to deal with crises when least expected. Information is moving faster and you need to respond effectively and promptly as you planned and trained for! To help you along, consider the following three Cs of emergency planning and responses to develop significant standards of preparedness that will enable all interested stakeholders to join their efforts and resources more effectively to face the next critical event!
Coordination
Coordination plays a crucial role in increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of crisis management; it allows you to obtain the big picture of an emergency and reduce uncertainty levels. Coordinating with your stakeholders allows you to act together smoothly, helping to reduce impact.
The lack of good coordination during a critical event affects your response and hinders completing the task. To ensure that your emergency response system is functioning well, It’s advised to send regular test notifications to your team to collect and monitor responses; this brings into view potential coordination issues in your emergency response system.
Communication
Effective communication with resources during a critical event is essential. Choosing your emergency-communication channel during the time of the crisis without prior planning can result in poor or misunderstood communications! Set up your emergency communication plan as early as possible through identifying tools, resources, teams, and strategies to ensure effective actions during emergencies.
Collaboration
