Organizations serving the public should have a well-defined disaster management plan, which ensures potential disasters are identified and countered before they happen. Structuring the emergency services effectively ensures that the consequences of disasters are duly minimized, and people who would be planning to attack a given facility draws back. According to Kim (2014), organizations such as hospitals should ensure that collaboration of all departments should be highly acknowledged since emergency control department cannot singularly handle disasters in the entire hospital without reinforcement from other departments. It is, therefore, important that every stakeholder or employee in the hospital be taken ...

QUESTION 1

One can begin to think clearly about these types of events without being "that guy,” and one can have a rational discussion about this. One of the characteristics of Extremistan is that it is more likely to be found in our modern society implying that it is living and not dependent on the old environment like mediocristan. Mediocristan tends to favor the weak by making sure that the total is not determined by a single instance whereas, in Extremistan a person gets the full due of what they are supposed to get.

Three of the most common initiatives that can prepare and guide RNs for emergencies include the Clinical Outreach (COCA), Crisis and Emergency Risk Communication (CERC), and Emergency Management Assistance Compact (EMAC). For instance, COCA prepares RNs to respond to new health issues and emergencies through the communication of critical health information. Contrarily, CERC trains them on the ethics of crisis and risk communication in health care. Finally, EMAC offers shared personnel, resources, and equipment across state lines during health disasters (CDC, 2016). For example, during the recent Zika outbreak in Florida, the CDC collaborated with like-minded agencies to educate ...

Fostering Successful Emergency Planning

Fostering a successful emergency plan ensures that the plan focuses on intensive training and exercises. In doing so, the plan reinforces emergency preparedness for a number of potential emergencies. The exercises that emergency planners can create to test their plans include trial or testing through prototypes and operations, rehearsing the plan and explaining the plan to others and memorizing it (‎Perry, 2016). The best way to access emergencies is through trials. I believe this is true because when accessing emergency systems using trial, one bases the trial on socialist systems. The use of socialist systems in responding to emergencies ...

Do you agree with personal vs. business ethics distinction?

Yes, I do agree with the distinction between the two terms. Personal ethics can get defined as the morals and values held by an individual. These are ethics in the sense that they define what individual views as right or wrong. Values vary from individual to individual and from culture to culture. The reason for these differences is that different cultures have diverse worldviews and live in different environments that require varied forms of thinking and doing things. Individuals belong to one culture or another and for this reason; personal ethics is greatly influenced by someone’s culture. From ...
