  • Understanding Leader's Mental Models In Crisis

    984 Words  | 2 Pages

    My research focuses on the complexity of mental models associated with leaders in a crisis situation. In order to grasp the thought process during a catastrophic event, it is essential to analyze a conceptual model as it applies to a leader’s cognitive abilities, which is composed of two facets noted as the descriptive and prescriptive mental models, (Combe & Carrington, 2015). The descriptive metal model focuses on the interpretation of external changes that occur in a crisis, (Combe & Carrington, 2015). The prescriptive model concentrates on cause and effect and future actions that provide clarity in the midst of ongoing changes, (Combe & Carrington, 2015). According to the authors, Combe & Carrington, (2015) longitudinal research perspective

  • Exploring the Role of Civil Support Teams

    1271 Words  | 3 Pages

    A Civil Support Team will not directly assume Command of an incident upon arrival to the scene. Their role is to support the requesting authorities. The Civil Support Teams primary mission while deployed is to identify, advise, assist, and assess while on scene. Identification occurs while the Recon Team implements their equipment to get preliminary findings and samples for analysis. The Operations Cell is responsible for assessing all information and providing a clear continuity of operation and information flow to the Incident Commander. The CST Commander will utilize all the information at hand to advise the incident Commander and help solidify their decisions. The entire unit will assist the Incident Commander by augmenting their response force as needed with specific task sets. During these four tasks the CST Commander will remain in constant contact with the Incident Commander keeping them abreast of any relevant information and continuously monitoring the

    I would initially have a verbal conversation with whoever is in charge of the medical staff within the schools so that they may properly relay the message to the rest of the staff. Having this conversation via telephone would give them a chance to ask as many questions that they would like so that accurate information is passed along. Medical staff should be the first to make notes of all of the symptoms that occur after notification goes out. In order to provide the staff with speedy notification, I would also put together a brief memo to be sent out via email immediately. In understanding the nature of the concern the email would be informative, yet to the point. There would not be too many unnecessary details given because the priority would be placed on the staff understanding the informat...

  • Why Is NIMS Important

    Over the past several years, there has been a rise in critical incidents on our college and university campuses, which has forced administrators to reevaluate the need to have effective campus safety. The National Incident Management System (NIMS) was developed by the Department of Homeland Security in March 2004 to “provide a systematic, proactive approach for all government agencies at all levels, nongovernment organizations, and private sector to work seamlessly to prevent, protect against, respond to, recover from, and mitigate the effects of incidents- regardless of cause, size, location, or complexity- to reduce the loss of life, destruction of property, and harm to the environment” (Fazzini, 2009, p. 14). NIMS provides colleges and universities the aptitudes and ability to respond to critical incidents and offers campuses a considerable approach to protecting students.

If no direction or communication is given, providing facilities run the risk of victims trying to enter their doors seeking care, which can over exhaust resources and oversaturate hospitals. Therefore, a hospital triage is implemented to assess if patient condition has worsened or remained stable, if there is a need for decontamination process, or if a person seeking assistance is a family member looking for victim. Having these procedures ensures that patients inside the hospital prior to incident are protected for potential harmful exposure to contamination agents and other measures. In addition, hospital and providing facilities are a source of information for victims, the media, and family members.

    A nurse is almost always one of the first responders to a patient’s declining health status, In these critical situations, a nurse must use his or her detailed training, highly specialized skills and intuition to respond, and to identify the needs and the demands of the individualized circumstances. During these acute care situations, a rapid response team that is usually composed of nurses from the intensive care unit, resident physicians, and respiratory therapists, is utilized to prevent further deterioration of the patient. Rapid response team utilization steadily increased about eleven years ago when organizations such as the Institute for Healthcare Improvement and the Joint Commission incorporated the use of rapid response teams into

  • Mourning And Grieving And The ABC Model Of Crisis Intervention Models

    Contrary to the similarities of both models, The ABC Model of Crisis Intervention is used as an assessment consisting of three components: A- achieving contact, B-boiling the problem down to basics and C-coping (Kanel, 2010). Kanel (2010) suggest that the ABC Model of Crisis Intervention is designed for a client whose functioning level has decreased following a psychosocial stressor. It’s most effectively applied within 4 to 6 weeks of the crisis. The Seven Task of Assessment consists of the following seven tasks: (1) Initiating Contact, (2) Defining the Crisis, (3) Providing Support, (4) Examining Alternatives, (5) Re-establishing Control, (6) Obtaining Commitment, and (7) the Follow Up (James, 2013). The Seven Task Assessment is a more detailed assessment focusing solely on the difficulties faced by the client due to a severe crisis. It allows for a closer encounter with the client to evaluate the crisis’ severity, their current emotional status, alternative methods, support systems and coping

    Contingency theory and situational view. Contingency theory, developed by Fiedler (1967), is similar to situational theory, in that the leader applies various leadership methods; however, the similarities end there. Rather than adapting to situations, the contingency leader adapts least favored-worker concept to draw the disinterested or less skilled worker into the environment (Fiedler, 1967). Contingent reward offers a kind of acknowledgement or feedback that motivates the quality of affiliation between transactional leaders and their followers. The contingent reward style delivers optimistic support by identifying or gratifying a follower when he or she achieves targeted objectives (Bass, 1985; Hater & Bass, 1988).

    2. Detection of Incidents: It cannot succeed in responding to incidents if an organization cannot detect incidents effectively. Therefore, one of the most important aspects of incident response is the detection of incidents phase.
