Emergency plans may be called different names such as an Emergency Preparedness Plan\, Emergency Operations Plan (EOP)\, or Emergency Response Plan (ERP). However\, they share core objectives and should detail how the facility implements the emergency management principles of mitigation\, preparedness\, response and recovery and the personnel\, authorities and other details of program administration. \nHealthcare system planners must ensure their plans account for the current and changing landscape of requirements\, regulations\, threats\, and hazards. Complying with standards and following the plans will help healthcare entities reliably respond to and recover from disasters\, as well as work cohesively and effectively with emergency management partners. \nThis training will include an overview of key Emergency Preparedness Plan and EOP considerations as they align with Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) licensure requirements and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Emergency Preparedness Rule requirements.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_accordion][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Emergency plans may be called different names such as an Emergency Preparedness Plan\, Emergency Operations Plan (EOP)\, or Emergency Response Plan (ERP). However\, they share core objectives and should detail how the facility implements the emergency management principles of mitigation\, preparedness\, response and recovery and the personnel\, authorities and other details of program administration. \nHealthcare system planners must ensure their plans account for the current and changing landscape of requirements\, regulations\, threats\, and hazards. Complying with standards and following the plans will help healthcare entities reliably respond to and recover from disasters\, as well as work cohesively and effectively with emergency management partners. \nThis training will include an overview of key Emergency Preparedness Plan and EOP considerations as they align with Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) licensure requirements and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Emergency Preparedness Rule requirements.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_accordion][/vc_column][/vc_row]
