  • Emergency management

    Disaster management (or emergency management) is the creation of plans through which communities reduce vulnerability to hazards and cope with disasters. Disaster management does not avert or eliminate the threats; instead, it focuses on creating plans to decrease the effect of disasters. Failure to create a plan could lead to damage to assets, human mortality, and lost revenue. Currently in the United States 60 percent of businesses do not have emergency management plans. Events covered by disaster management include acts of terrorism, industrial sabotage, fire, natural disasters (such as earthquakes, hurricanes, etc.), public disorder, industrial accidents, and communication failures.

    Emergency planning ideals

    If possible, emergency planning should aim to prevent emergencies from occurring, and failing, that should develop a good action plan to mitigate the results and effects of any emergencies. As time goes on, and more data becomes available, usually through the study of emergencies as they occur, a plan should evolve. The development of emergency plans is a cyclical process, common to many risk management disciplines, such as Business Continuity and Security Risk Management, as set out below:

    Prevention

    by: De Rosa

    I compose, every center, every perspective
    any part is a nose
    I propose, a way of looking, or a way of looking past this
    Our redemption shows perfect stillness
    Baby Love, is the shadow of our existence
    Any wiseman knows to keep his distance
    its not enough my desire fake some illness
    every liar knows to keep his stillness
    well i am stillness
    I arose from the backplate, from the blank slate
    i remember smoke
    and all the fires of November paint our blood on our back doors
    and i remember him still at the corner
    hes still at the corner
    Baby time, is the shadow of our existence
    any wiseman knows to keep his distance
    its not enough my desire to fake some illness
    every liar knows to keep his stillness
    well i am stillness
