Exercise Safety
  • Safety is everyones concern
  • Safety Officer is Name

  • Be aware that operating in this environment is
    inherently dangerous optional for FE
  • Actual emergencies will be identified by the

5
Purpose Scope
  • The purpose of this exercise is to evaluate
    player actions against current response plans and
    capabilities for a bioterrorism incident
    response.
  • The scope of play for Exercise Name requires
    the simulated establishment of an emergency
    dispensing operation and the actions usually
    associated with a response to a bioterrorism
    incident. This includes command and control,
    communications, and other actions.

6
Exercise Design Objectives
  • Communications
  • Assess the ability of EDS staff to establish and
    maintain internal/external communications with
    various support agencies such as the local EOC,
    local BOH, etc. during a biological terrorism
    incident in accordance with the communities EDS
    Plan.
  • Evaluate the ability of EDS staff to use common
    response language (i.e. plain English) when
    implementing communication plans during a
    biological terrorism incident, in accordance with
    Incident Command System/NIMS recommendations.
  • Onsite Incident Management
  • Assess the ability of the EDS Manager/Incident
    Commander to implement the Incident Command
    System, during a biological terrorism incident,
    in accordance with Incident Command System
    principles and the EDS plan.
  • Test the ability of EDS staff to create and
    disseminate an Incident Action Plan during a
    biological terrorism incident, in accordance with
    Incident Command System protocols.

7
Exercise Assumptions
  • Conducted in a no-fault learning environment
    wherein systems and processes, not individuals,
    will be evaluated.
  • Exercise simulation will be realistic and
    plausible, containing sufficient detail from
    which to respond.
  • Exercise players will react to the information
    and situations as they are presented, in the same
    manner as if this had been a real event.

8
Exercise Artificialities
  • Artificialities and constraints, such as the
    Assembly Area, may detract from realism. Some
    other artificialities include the following
  • Surrogates may be playing in place of some key
    decision makers
  • Some organizations and individuals will be
    simulated
  • The exercise will be played in real time.
    However, there may be some time jumps or
    acceleration to meet certain objectives
