Earthquake Response February 2011Preparing for Further Emergency
First 24 Hours• Institute local response• Contact EOC and provide status
Week One• Centralize Response and deploy resources to greatest
need• Survey Practices/Pharmacies to provide logistic support
Week Two Plus• Recognize areas most needing ongoing intensive input• Design ongoing work-streams or projects
Month Three Plus• Recovery mode: business viability, service viability.
