55 What do I do??? If there is a Hazardous Materials Spill R.I.N.S.E.! Rescue--Provide assistance to individuals in trouble Incident Command--Take control of the incident Notify--Contact the appropriate clean up team Suppress/Confine--Prevent future spread of the hazardous material Evacuate--Notify personnel in the case there is a need to evacuate
56 Emergency Planning for the Healthcare Setting Prior to any emergency become familiar with the facility s emergency plan, including: Location of emergency exits How alarm system works and modifications for individuals who are hearing and/or visually impaired Plans for evacuation, including: How residents/visitors requiring assistance will be evacuated, if necessary How the facility will ensure each resident can be identified during evacuation (e.g., attach identification information to each resident prior to evacuation) Facility s evacuation strategy Where they will go How their medical charts will be transferred How families will be notified of evacuation
57 Systems theory Systems, in general, have the following elements: Input: Resources entering the system Throughput: Work done on those resources used to produce a product Output: The final product Feedback: Information taken from the output to control or correct errors in throughput
