Incident Command System: When Seconds Count

This DVD will help you facilitate learning about how to handle both minor incidents and large-scale disasters. Incident Command Systems: When Seconds Count is extremely valuable in providing structure for incident management;  it will also help guide your process for planning, building and adapting the structure.

According to FEMA, “the Incident Command System (ICS) is a standardized, on-scene, all-hazards incident management approach" that:

• Allows for the integration of facilities, equipment, personnel, procedures, and communications operating within a common organizational structure.
• Enables a coordinated response among various jurisdictions and functional agencies, both public and private.
• Establishes common processes for planning and managing resources.

Incident Command Systems: When Seconds Count will show your employees how to adopt an integrated organizational structure to match the complexities and demands of single or multiple incidents. Time is of the essence when responding to incidents and each second wasted could result in further damage to people and property.
