Emergency Disaster Plan Julieann Dooley American Sentinel University Emergency Disaster Plan The purpose of this paper is to assess the community for potential disasters that could result in mass casualties, including what disasters are predictable, and what if any measures can be taken to prevent or minimize injuries, death, or destruction. It will also discuss who is responsible for disaster management in the community, what plans are in place for warning people and for communicating which actions to take in the event of a disaster, and if the people are aware of these plans. It will also talk about what social and cultural factors need to be considered in disaster planning in the community, if there are vulnerable populations with special needs, and if an evacuation of the community is mandated what are the plans for the evacuation of these groups. Lastly it will discuss what emergency supplies the health care facility has available in the event of a disaster, what provisions have been made available for vulnerable patients in the event the power goes out, and how would patients be evacuated from the facility to safe shelters.

In particular, key social factors considered under this model include the impact of poverty, poor housing, diet and pollution on persons’ health. For instance, poor housing and poverty may prove to be catalysts to respiratory problems, and in response to these causes and origins of ill health, an objective of the socio-medical model is to encourage society to provide better housing and introduce programs to tackle poverty, and these propositions are seen as viable solutions. The socio-medical model encourages people to live healthy lifestyles, it looks at the cause of the illness and tries to change the factor that causes the illness to prevent it from continuing rather than only giving when diagnosis and only medical treatment. The factors which the socio-medical model suggest is also a cause of ill health such as poor housing, poverty and diet can have a strong impact on the over health and wellness of individuals, communities and countries.
