Emergency managers and officials have seen a tremendous increase in
the planning responsibilities placed on their shoulders over the
last decade. Crisis Management and Emergency Planning: Preparing
for Today's Challenges supplies time-tested insights to help
communities and organizations become better prepared to cope with
natural and manmade disasters and their impacts on the areas they
serve. Author and editor Michael J. Fagel, PhD, CEM has more than
three decades of experience in emergency management and emergency
operations. He has been an on-site responder to such disaster
events as the Oklahoma City Bombing and the site of the World Trade
Center in the aftermath of 9/11. He is an experienced professor,
trainer, professional, and consultant and has pretty much seen it
all. The book delves into this experience to present advanced
emergency management and response concepts to disasters not often
covered in other publications. It includes coverage of planning and
preparedness, public health considerations, vulnerability and
impact assessments, hospital management and planning, sporting
venue emergency planning, and community preparedness including
volunteer management. Contributions from leading professionals in
the field focus on broad responses across the spectrum of public
health, emergency management, and mass casualty situations. The
book provides detailed, must-read planning and response instruction
on a variety of events, identifying long-term solutions for
situations where a community or organization must operate outside
its normal daily operational windows. This book has been selected
as the 2014 ASIS Book of the Year.
