Title: Checklists for hazardous materials emergency preparedness. Author: Borron SW. Journal: Emerg Med Clin North Am; 2015 Feb; 33(1):213-32. PubMed ID: 25455670. Abstract: Preparation for, and response to, hazardous materials emergencies requires both preplanning and just-in-time information management. The development of an emergency operations plan and a hazardous materials incident response plan involves many steps and implicates numerous resources: institutional, governmental, and private. This article provides checklists for development of plans and guidelines, with numerous references to information and material resources. An important component of readiness is revision. The availability of resources, human and informatics, as well as the means for accessing them, inevitably changes over time. The reader is advised to update all links and telephone numbers on a regularly scheduled basis.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
