Disaster Victim Identification: A Manager’s Guide to Policy and
Procedure’s guiding thesis explains why disaster victim
identification (DVI) must be fundamentally integrated—at the
outset—into general disaster planning and operations procedures.
By doing so, it allows for pre-event assessment of any risks and
vulnerabilities, in coordination with planning and response
agencies, so that the on-site response isn’t the first time they
have communicated and worked together. The book outlines the
importance of exercising, interagency memoranda of understanding
(MOU), and coordination in advance to provide the best, most
effective response that optimally serves both the victims and the
community. DVI requires a multi-disciplinary approach and, as such,
plans should take into consideration and account for possible
integration of outside assistance into the general work plan and
flow. By doing this, practical action and measures—sometimes
coordinated impromptu depending on the nature and scale of a
disaster—can be undertaken both quickly and seamlessly. Coverage
outlines the overall DVI process, its various methodologies, and
how it serves as an integral part of overall disaster response.
Disaster Victim Identification brings together the expertise of two
professionals with longstanding, extensive first-hand experience in
the field. This includes working at, as well as supervising
coordination of, DVI response to such scenes. The book will be a
welcome addition to professionals by examining what works, what
doesn’t, and how to maintain best practices while avoiding common
mistakes.
