Features of a medical response plan covered in the course include:
Communicating effectively during disasters.

Managing resources such as supplies, medications, and equipment.
Triage and transportation strategies and challenges.
Patient tracking and evacuation.
At the start of the course, participants conduct a “hazards vulnerability analysis” to assess features of their environment, both natural and man-made, that pose a risk, along with assessing the needs of vulnerable populations, such as assisted-living residents or hospital patients, that need special consideration during such an event.
