Tracks: Incident Management

Many organizations have done some active shooter training. Some have developed policies. Is it enough? Are there holes? This session discusses at the leadership level how to fully prepare your organization for a response to an active shooter or hostile event. Topics include the complex and often misunderstood incident management challenges, needs, and expectations of law enforcement; common mistakes of fire service organizations; things that should (and shouldn’t) be in policy; essential training and exercising; and best practices. Saving the lives of bleeding casualties necessitates an integrated response across law enforcement, fire, and EMS disciplines as never before. Don’t miss the opportunity to prepare your organization and save lives!
