Consider the following scenarios:In this age of escalating natural disasters and potential terror events, the need for emergency management is growing.Emergency management in the United States is built on the all-hazards model. This is the idea that hazards, whether natural or caused by humans, should be treated with the same response and planning approach. Several federal laws require the use of the all-hazards model as a guide to emergency management activities. According to this model there are generic processes for addressing most kinds of emergencies and disasters. Thus emergency managers can conduct emergency management activities in a more flexible and cost-effective manner than using a stand-alone, emergency, or disaster-specific program.The all-hazards model has the added benefit of providing emergency managers with the opportunity to learn from their experiences. The all-hazards model prompts emergency managers to draw from multiple experiences so the potential for knowledge and best practice sharing is great.For this Discussion, review the \”Talladega EMA All Hazards\” video located in this week\’s Learning Resources.
