SUMMARY:Managing Multiple Volunteer Groups Simultaneously (virtual)
DESCRIPTION:The first day of a major incident can be oh so complicated\, with fingers crossed\, and the hope that it all\nunfolds in an organized way – according to some really good plan out there. Sometimes it does; but\nchaos\, with nobody at fault\, is the norm. After all\, they’re called disasters for a reason.\nThe day of the week and the time of day have a huge influence on how we respond. Whether the\nincident is a surprise\, or was seen coming\, is also big. In this presentation\, we will talk about Incident Command\nand/ or Unified Command in the field – somehow triggering a local government response\, and how\nCERT volunteers\, along with a lot of other organized volunteers\, fit in. We’ll ask a lot of questions and\nwith luck\, we’ll even answer a few.
