Full Description
Updated, comprehensive examination of emergency management (EM), offering concepts and strategies for creating effective EM programs and strategic organizational planning
Emergency Management provides an overview of the larger context within which emergency management response occurs and stresses the development of programs to address a wide range of issues. Not limited to traditional emergency response to natural disasters, it addresses a conceptual model capable of integrating multiple disciplines and dealing with unexpected emergencies.
This book details the three pillars on which successful emergency management is based: an understanding of history, knowledge of social science research, and technical expertise in emergency management operations. It also provides insights on future potential crises like climate change and pandemics.
Newly revised to reflect recent events such as the Covid pandemic and subsequent resilience efforts, this Third Edition features expanded coverage of strategic planning, recovery, and crisis communication tools as well as updated real-world examples and references.
Written by a highly qualified professional in the field, the book includes information on:
How emergency management has evolved and reasons why the current method of response planning doesn't work as well as it should
Leadership in crisis and establishing and administering an emergency management program
The traditional macro view of hazard identification and analysis and the micro view required for continuity planning
Risk as the basis for strategy development and the planning process, techniques, and methods for coordinating response and crisis management
This is a valuable reference for professionals in law enforcement, state and local emergency managers and planners involved in emergency management, elected officials and government administrators, and advanced students in related programs of study.
