Emergency preparedness is serious business – and must be tested regularly. There are different ways to achieve this, but for agencies that can’t attend outside events, tabletop exercises can be invaluable. This helpful program will detail the requirements for tabletop testing to ensure you meet the requirements and enhance your emergency response program. 

AFTER THIS WEBINAR YOU’LL BE ABLE TO:

• Identify requirements and documentation for testing an emergency preparedness plan
• Test an emergency plan using a tabletop exercise
• Explain tabletop exercise requirements, including documentation of the event
• Effectively use a disaster critique to identify potential improvement areas

WEBINAR DETAILS: Your emergency preparedness plan must be tested annually and every two years a community-based exercise, facility-based exercise, mock disaster drill, or tabletop exercise must be completed. This testing must be documented in the emergency plan. Many agencies are unable to participate in community events and opt to utilize tabletop exercises – but do they meet the testing requirements? This webinar will review the testing and documentation requirements for emergency preparedness, including requirements specific to tabletop exercises. You’ll learn how tabletop exercise scenarios are chosen, created, documented, and used to improve your emergency response.

THIS WEBINAR WILL BENEFIT THE FOLLOWING AGENCIES: Hospice, Home Health

WHO SHOULD ATTEND? This informative session is designed for senior leaders, managers, and QAPI/compliance leaders.
