Q

The 3 cornerstone method of data collection for disaster planning are:

  1. Hazard identification and mapping
  2. Vulnerability Analysis
  3. Risk Assessment
55
Q

First step in effective disaster planning requires

A

advanced identification of potential problems

56
Q

This determines which event is most likely to affect a community and to make decisions
about whom or what to protect as the basis of establishing measures for prevention, mitigation
and response
-Data are mapped using aerial photography, satellite imagery, remote sensing and geographic
information systems

A

HAZARD INDENTIFICATION AND MAPPING

57
Q

Used to determine who is most likely to be affected the property most likely to be damaged or
destroyed, and the capacity of the community to deal with the effects of the disaster.
-Data are collected regarding the susceptibility of individuals, property and the environment to
potential hazards in order to develop prevention strategies

A

VULNERABILITY ANALYSIS

58
Q

Uses the results of the hazard identification and vulnerability analysis to determine the
probability of a specified outcome from a given hazard that affects a community with known
vulnerabilities and coping mechanism
-The probability may be presented as a numerical range ( percentage) or in relative form ( low,
moderate, high)

basis in the ED
GOAL – to identify the sickest
patient in order to assess and treat
them first

an acute incident, but still able to
provide care to all patient utilizing
existing agency resources.
