Description

This course deconstructs and evaluates the roles that public safety services play in responding to mass disaster scenes and other interagency cooperation issues/scenarios. Issues pertaining to scene control preparedness response priorities risk mitigation and tiered response systems amongst fire police EMS services military and other services are addressed via both a theoretical approach as well as a case study approach. Each service has its own unique training education policies and expertise and as a result requires critical review and comparison. For example mass disasters occur in diverse contexts with diverse outcomes; therefore the need to address all that has happened or inevitably will happen from a variety of perspectives requires intense investigation review of best practices and review of research of evidence-based interventions.
