With the recent anniversary of the devastating Queensland floods as a reminder, are your facility's emergency management plans up to scratch?
The threat posed by summer storms, cyclones, bushfires, floods can often materialise without much warning and preparedness for such an event can make the critical difference. View the ACSWA Guide to Emergency Management in Aged Care document. FESA also offers other helpful resources including factsheets for fire danger ratings and warning systems. The Accreditation Agency has also reissued a planning checklist in their special edition ‘Preparing for an Emergency’ available and emergency planning which will be part of the assessment scope for all contacts until the end of March. Don't leave it until its too late.
