Emergency Preparedness Training

Hospital Incident Command System (HICS) is an incident management system based on principles of the Incident Command System (ICS), which assists hospitals and health care organizations in improving their emergency management planning, response, and recovery capabilities for unplanned and planned events.

 

The New Mexico Hospital Association is offering a 5-part, self-paced webinar series hosted by HSS, at no cost to our member hospitals. Each episode within the series breaks down integral parts of the Incident Command System and is geared towards individuals who have already taken ICS 100, 200, 700, and 800. The program is recommended for, administration, senior leadership, emergency management, and clinical staff.

 

Each session provides information on best practices, implementation strategies, and balancing theoretical concepts with practical approaches. The course is intended to provide a review for participants who already have experience with (HICS). A knowledge check is included at the end of each session to verify lessons learned.

• Part 1 – Command Staff
