Emergency Management 11
Emergency Management 11 : "An ongoing process to prevent, mitigate, prepare for, respond to, and recover from an incident that threatens life, property, operations, or the environment". (NFPA 1600, 2007, p. 7) "The emergency management and business continuity community comprises many different entities including the government at distinct levels (e.g., federal, state/provincial, territorial, tribal, indigenous, and local levels); business and industry; nongovernmental organizations; and individual citizens. Each of these entities has its own focus, unique missions and responsibilities, varied resources and capabilities, and operating principles and procedures. Each entity can have its own definition of disaster. (NFPA 1600, 2007, p. 11)
