INCIDENT COMMAND SYSTEM; PRINCIPLES AND FEATURES PART II; DISASTER PREPAREDNESS
Case Assignment
You are the Logistics Section Chief LSC2). During a recent disaster (Hurricane Harry) the Incident Commander (IC) informs you at the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) that he needs extra medical supplies as soon as possible since the number of persons injured has risen faster than anticipated. Additionally, the IC informs you of the following:
- There will be a significant shortage in drinking water, food, and temporary shelter. The heavy rains and possible flooding have made the use of tents rather dangerous.
- Expect several elderly persons; some are Covid-19 compromised; others with disabilities. Special care services will be needed.
Based on these limited facts, briefly state the decisions that you must make at this time to procure what is needed.
- Describe how you as LSC2, within the context of the EOC, would prioritize the demands.
- How would you delegate your staff of 4?
