Final Examination - Multi-Hazard Emergency Planning for Schools (IS-362(Total of 25 questions)1. Which the following is designed to reduce the frequency and magnitude of emergencies andare able to respond faster and more appropriately?a. Crisis interventionb. Emergency planningc. Flexible responsivenessd. Conflict resolution2. One desired outcome of school emergency planning is:a. Community emergency responders understand that schools must receive a responsewithin 1 hour of an emergency's occurrence no matter what the circumstances are.b. Schools develop a separate emergency operations plan with detailed procedures for everyidentified potential emergency that may occur at that site.c. Schools develop the capability to be self-reliant until response personnel can help,because emergency responders may not be available to help the school immediately.d. Community emergency responders establish protocols for communication with schoolpersonnel in case of an emergency so that they are sufficiently prepared for any possibleemergency.3. Emergency management is a four-phase process by which communities prepare for hazardsthat cannot be prevented, respond to emergencies that occur, recover from emergencies, and:a. Mitigate risks to prevent emergencies or lessen their impact.b. Engage professional consultants to conduct planning activities.c. Secure emergency disaster relief funding from FEMA.d. Hire the local Emergency Manager to develop an emergency operations plan.4. Planning for school emergencies includes the following activity:a. Identifying who caused past emergencies and holding responsible parties accountable.b. Mobilizing and positioning emergency equipment in an actual emergency.c. Contacting FEMA and establishing a revolving emergency response fund.d. Developing, testing, and revising the Emergency Operations Plan.
Each is a different phase in emergency management. Response is usually a phase that comes before recovery post-occurrence of a disaster. In the response phase, the response plan is activated and agencies and associated organizations mobilize to the disaster scene (and ground zero) and initiate response tactics such as search and rescue, incident command and safety engineering. In the recovery phase, the disaster calls for a new objective - returning normalcy back to a community and/or organization with activities such as demobilizing resources, debris cleanup, power restoration and etc. Two other important phases to also research are mitigation and preparedness as well.
