Be Prepared to ensure the safety of staff, guests, and visitors to your site
Hoping your team will rise to the occasion in an emergency could be disastrous. The key to successful outcomes from emergency situations is preparedness and confidence. That is exactly what our Emergency Management exercise design and delivery services offer you.
Our team of seasoned professionals will deliver a strategic plan, training, and hands-on exercises to you and your team to ensure you are proactively ready for any eventuality with robust, tested, and proven plans and processes to follow in the event of an emergency. Emergency Management plans and skills are what saves lives.
Why Run an Emergency Management Exercise?
Using exercises to maintain and improve capability and capacity in emergency and crisis management is of critical importance for several reasons:
Realistic Practice
Theoretical learning is great but nothing will establish learning quite like real-world practical exercises. These exercises ensure that your team can apply their training effectively when faced with an actual crisis situation.
Testing Plans & Procedures
Running a live exercise is the perfect way to put your existing plans and procedures to the test. Our team will monitor the exercise and provide feedback on strengths and areas for improvement. This allows you to make necessary adjustments so your plans are both practical and robust.
Build Muscle Memory
Just like building a muscle at the gym, regular exercises or drills for emergency responses will build “muscle memory” ensuring your team act quickly, decisively, and efficiently without hesitation in a real life emergency.
Enhancing Coordination & Communication
Emergency situations bring together different stakeholders that may not always interact with each other. Emergency Management exercises allow you to improve coordination and communication between various departments, agencies, and organisations which is vital for a unified and effective emergency response.
Identifying Resource Needs
An emergency simulation may identify resources that are required to handle a potential crisis. Resources may include, personnel, equipment, or financial resources. Better to identify these with a simulation than discover them during a real emergency event.
Leadership & Decision Making
Allowing your leadership team and decision makers the opportunity to hone their skills without the stakes of a real emergency is invaluable. The high pressure involved in an emergency management exercise will improve their ability to make critical decisions rapidly so they are more prepared should an actual crisis occur.
Build Confidence & Morale
In an emergency situation, hesitation and doubt can cost lives. Successfully navigating through an emergency management exercise is a great way to build confidence and boost morale. Your team will feel much more prepared having successfully completed a training exercise.
Compliance with Standards
Many industries require regular emergency management exercises be conducted to remain compliant with industry and government standards. Our Emergency Management Exercise services ensure you will be at the leading edge of your industry.
Community Trust & Preparedness
Your emergency management exercise may involve the community – after all, if the public visit your site then an emergency situation may include them too. Including the community in your emergency management exercise can foster public trust and educate communities about their role in crisis situations, ultimately enhancing community resilience.
Continual Improvement
Reviewing the performance of your team after an emergency management exercise has been completed is the perfect way to continually improve your practices and keep your procedures and plans up to date with emerging threats and new best practices.
"Karl, thank you so much for today!
The whole day was brilliant. And the lengths you went to, to understand the role of the local laws staff did not go unnoticed. I’ve already had some feedback from Aaron, Jo and Hannah that they were so pleased to hear from someone that actually understands the work they do. As well as overwhelmingly positive comments about the session overall."
