A binder full of plans doesn't help if it's never reviewed or tucked in a drawer.

Organization leaders owe it to themselves and their teams to review, practice, and audit for what is and isn't working.

Great collaboration between ambulatory surgery centers at Day 2 of the Indiana Federation of Ambulatory Surgery Centers Annual Conference. Emergency operations plans, incident command, and communication plans were tested. Great work and another great conference.

Every so often we conduct a regular industry survey of life safety pros. If you're a first responder, nurse, safety team member, work with OSHA or facility management, or in a similar role, add your voice along with hundreds of others. This survey is anonymous. We release results to help others understand industry trends in hiring, salary, and more.

Your response to this survey is anonymous. Your name is not recorded or asked for, nor is your email or any other identifying information.

Indiana District 7 Healthcare Coalition (west central Indiana) recently came together for a Long-Term Care tabletop exercise. We've done tabletops like this elsewhere before, testing local teams against emergencies involving a number of patients who may require specialized equipment, care, or evacuation.

Teams across Indiana have seen this from recent flooding, where nursing homes, LTC facilities, and more need to be evacuated. Being prepared, having a plan, and knowing you can trust every other partner agency or department saves lives, reduces risks to residents, and is precisely what the public expects of world-class public servants and emergency teams.

Recently, the Montgomery County Local Emergency Planning Committee met with VPC for a tabletop exercise. These exercises are always grounded in reality, with emergency scenarios that could feasibly happen within a community.

In this case, what happens if hazardous materials from a nearby facility fail? Who responds, with what, how, and what should other partners like healthcare facilities and law enforcement expect?
