Mass Causality Training for SRPMIC High Profile Venues Cliff Puckett, Salt River Indian Community Emergency manager
Community Overview • Located in Phoenix Metropolitan area • 92 sq miles east of Scottsdale, north of Mesa • Two Tribes- Pima and Maricopa • Sovereign - Self Governance Tribe • Population 12,000 • 350,000 people visit daily • 10 Enterprises
Emergency Management • Coordinate all stakeholders to prepare, mitigate, respond, and recover from a natural, man made, or technological event that impacts the quality of life of the Community members, visitors, businesses, and employees in the SRPMIC.
Talking Stick Resort and Casino • Involved in Emergency Operations Plan and COOP development • Tribal Emergency Response Commission • Full Scale Exercise • Introduced and trained on the use of Incident Action Plan (IAP) • Introduced them to WebEOC for tracking event
Salt River Fields • Tabletop Exercise (Healthcare, Fire, EMS, Law Enforcement, Casino, SRFs, Diamondbacks, Rockies, PIOs) • Daily Briefs • Tabletop Exercise • Functional Exercise • Just wrote IAP for them
Challenges • Getting everyone to the table • Not missing key stakeholders (agenda item for first meeting……who is missing?) • Planning utilizing HSEEP • Taking action on After Action Report • Only those that participate benefit and learn………many others that do not. • False sense from leaders that their organization is doing things just fine • Educate each other on your plans and capabilities • Power/Clout of Emergency Management
Key components • Have to exercise plans • Have to reach out beyond comfort zone for participants so that all stakeholders are involved • After Action Report is not just Shelf Paper……at least do one or two things to improve • Do not get complacent!
