Disaster management according to most experienced emergency and disaster responders is a complex system of preparation. As most people would say, “how would you be able to prepare your self for something that you do not know?” Complicated as it may sound but effective disaster management planning actually takes seventy five percent of common sense and, a surprising, twenty five percent premonition. More often than not, disaster management fails because the emergency team has left out that petty but important 25% of premonition.
In reality, two things might come in an emergency. It is either an emergency that is being prepared for strategically, or something that is never been seen but is potentially risky. Identifying both is an important aspect of disaster management. The emergency team of an organization, school or church may design a plan that targets likely hazards or may opt for a cover – it – all disaster management plan that addresses most typical emergency situations. It is an option that is seen by many as the more flexible and more cost effective as far as disaster management efficiency is concerned.
