Seminar 7:

Emergency Preparedness Update in the wake of September 11th
Session length:  2 hours
Designed for:  Administrators, faculty, program directors,  camp staff

The September 11th terrorist attacks made us aware of a number of contingencies that we had not previously planned for in our emergency preparedness.  What have you added to your plans since September 11th? This seminar builds on the general Emergency Preparedness seminar with a focus on specific threats that should be addressed in expanded plans. 

Topics include:  overview of bio-terrorism risks and exposures; preparing for low-level nuclear exposure (dirty bombs); additional medical and emergency supplies needed; procedures for mail handling; revising communication plans for internal and external communication; adding central shelter and shelter in place to your emergency action plans; updating release of students procedures and interacting with community support resources effectively.

Key Concepts:

• Additional risks have emerged since Sept. 11th that should be addressed in our emergency response plans
• Parents have a higher level of concern since Sept. 11th for their children's safety, and expect us to be better prepared
• Additional emergency supplies and procedures need to be in place to deal with these types of emergencies
