Situational awareness is more complex than simply noticing what is
happening around you. An emergency responder must capture clues and
cues in the emergency environment, make sense of the information,
and predict what will happen next. In Situational Awareness for
Emergency Response, Richard Gasaway establishes the foundation of
decision making and the role of situational awareness in high-risk
public safety environments. He explains his original research on
command decisions and the barriers that challenge a commander's
situational awareness, and offers lessons learned and best
practices that can assist responders in preventing or overcoming
the situational awareness barriers. Situational Awareness for
Emergency Response is an ideal resource for incident commanders,
line personnel who make high-stress decisions, and students
learning to develop and maintain situational awareness. Features
and benefits: Realise how decisions are made in high-stress,
high-consequence, and time-compressed situations Understand
situational awareness and its role in making good and bad decisions
Identify barriers that challenge a commander's situational
awareness Improve your decision making with the lessons learned and
recommended best practices Use the 25-point checklist as an
incident evaluation tool to improve safety
