Book Synopsis Emergency Incident Management Systems by : Louis N. Molino, Sr.
Download or read book Emergency Incident Management Systems written by Louis N. Molino, Sr. and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2006-04-20 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A "street smart" look atincident management in all its permutations Incident Management Systems (IMS) provide the means by which to coordinate the efforts of individual agencies in order to stabilize an incident and protect life, property, and the environment. Born from the FireScope project of the late 1960s, which was developed in response to the major wildfires that regularly plagued Southern California, these systems have evolved with many similarities and certain fundamental differences. Emergency Incident Management Systems: Fundamentals and Applications contrasts the major forms of Incident Management/Incident Command Systems. The author illuminates these differences and offers a fresh perspective on the concepts on which these systems are founded in order to make them more accessible and user-friendly. Without suggesting major changes in the systems, he bridges the gap between their theoretical and academic foundations and their real-world applications, and makes them more applicable to the professional's daily needs. Timely features of the book include: * An "in the field" point of view * Coverage of incidents of mass destruction * Filled-out sample forms designed to aid professionals in completing reports In post-9/11 America, where incident management has become a national priority-one that must be easilyunderstood and applicable across all emergency systems-this book provides a useful tool for helping today's emergency workers be more informed and more prepared than ever.

Book Synopsis Disaster Response SMARTbook 2 - Incident Command System (ICS) by : Kyle Ferlemann
Download or read book Disaster Response SMARTbook 2 - Incident Command System (ICS) written by Kyle Ferlemann and published by . This book was released on 2015-10-01 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disaster can strike anytime, anywhere. It takes many forms--a hurricane, an earthquake, a tornado, a flood, a fire or a hazardous spill, or an act of terrorism. An incident can build over days or weeks, or hit suddenly, without warning. A poorly managed incident response can undermine our safety and well-being. With so much at stake, we must effectively manage our response efforts. Although most incidents are handled locally, partnerships among Local, Tribal, State, and Federal agencies as well as nongovernmental and private-sector organizations may be required. As partners, we must respond together in a seamless, coordinated fashion. The Incident Command System (ICS) helps ensure integration of our response efforts. ICS is a standardized, on-scene, all-hazards approach to incident management. ICS allows all responders to adopt an integrated organizational structure that matches the complexities and demands of the incident while respecting agency and jurisdictional authorities. The ICS is just one part of a larger integrated system of stability and response called the National Response Framework. It is used collectively through all levels of government, from Federal to Local, to ensure that in the case of an emergency, or any other situation that threatens the function of government, the services required to protect lives, preserve and maintain public infrastructure and protect personal property are in place or restored as soon as possible.
