Journal Entry #5 – Disaster Management

Complete Sentinel City Simulation (Tornado Emergency Response Planning):

A tornado has just ripped through Casper Park and Acer Tech Center in Sentinel City®.
In this activity, learners will determine the elements to evaluate and
considerations for an emergency response plan in various practice
settings.

Visit the Casper Park and Acer Tech Center areas of Sentinel City® and consider the impact zone of the tornado. Observe the services, routes and populations that may be involved with the city as a result of the tornado.
Create
a 2-3 page report that describes the potential public health effects,
infrastructure damage and environmental hazards related to the tornado.
Describe the members and roles of the emergency management team and
organizations (public and private) that would be activated in Sentinel
City®.
