Synopsis Emergency Department Design by : Jon Huddy
A new book from ACEP that will help you participate effectively-or lead the way-in the successful design of your emergency department. Emergency Department Design will teach you the design and planning process so that you and other caregivers can make decisions about what's best for your department. Whether you're building a new department, remodeling an existing one, expanding, or simply adding a new service, the critical decisions you'll make must be based on an understanding of the design process. Time and time again, the best results are achieved when caregivers drive this process, working with design professionals to plan not just for today's patients, but also for those of the future. Read this book and learn how to: Assess your space needs Set physical design goals that meet operational outcomes Define the scope of your project Select a design professional Evaluate the "workability" of proposed design solutions ...and much more. You'll minimize the complexity of the challenge, reduce wasted time, and focus on creating a design that fulfills your vision of how emergency care should be provided. The author is Jon Huddy, AIA, with FreemanWhite, Inc., a nationally renowned architectural firm specializing in emergency department design. Mr. Huddy brings a passion for emergency department design, a commitment to include caregivers in the design process, and an entertaining, energetic presentation style to this book. Michael T. Rapp, MD, JD, FACEP, past president of ACEP, served as editor and contributed his insights in a special introductory chapter, "The Emergency Physician's Perspective." Plus, more than 20 other emergency care professionals and architects have contributed case studies and "pearls and pitfalls" from their own personal experiences with emergency department design projects.

Synopsis Emergency Relief System Design Using DIERS Technology by : H. G. Fisher
OSHA (29 CFR 1910.119) has recognized AIChE/DIERS two-phase flow publications as examples of "good engineering practice" for process safety management of highly hazardous materials. The prediction of when two-phase flow venting will occur, and the applicability of various sizing methods for two-phase vapor-liquid flashing flow, is of particular interest when designing emergency relief systems to handle runaway reactions. This comprehensive sourcebook brings together a wealth of information on methods that can be used to safely size emergency relief systems for two-phase vapor-liquid flow for flashing or frozen, viscous or nonviscous fluids. Design methodologies are illustrated by selected sample problems. Written by industrial experts in the safety field, this book will be invaluable to those charged with operating, designing, or managing today's and tomorrow's chemical process industry facilities.

Synopsis An Introduction to Emergency Exercise Design and Evaluation by : Robert McCreight
Emergency exercises address and reveal the significant gaps between plans and capabilities. They are an important component of an organization's emergency planning and preparedness, yet few emergency managers and practitioners have training in designing or evaluating emergency exercises. In this practical handbook, author Robert McCreight explains the essential elements and core principles of exercise design and evaluation. The book focuses on natural disasters and technological emergencies that occur in communities of any size. It provides emergency planners, public health professionals, emergency managers, police officers, and fire fighters with an in-depth look at exercise design issues and an accessible guide to designing and evaluating emergency exercises.

Synopsis Designing Resilience by : Louise K. Comfort
In the wake of severe climatic events and terrorist acts and the emergence of dangerous technologies, communities, nations, and global organizations have diligently sought to create strategies to prepare for such events. Designing Resilience presents case studies of extreme events and analyzes the ability of affected individuals, institutions, governments, and technological systems to cope with disaster. This volume defines resilience as it relates to disaster management at specific stages: mitigation, prevention, preparation, and response and recovery. The book illustrates models by which to evaluate resilience at levels ranging from individuals to NGOs to governmental jurisdictions and examines how resilience can be developed and sustained. A group's or nation's ability to withstand events and emerge from them with their central institutions intact is at the core of resilience. Quality of response, capacity to improvise, coordination, flexibility, and endurance are also determinants. Individual case studies, including Hurricane Katrina in the United States, the London bombings, and French preparedness for the Avian flu, demonstrate effective and ineffective strategies.The contributors reveal how the complexity and global interconnectivity of modern systems-whether they are governments, mobile populations, power grids, financial systems, or the Internet-have transcended borders and created a new level of exposure that has made them especially vulnerable to extreme events. Yet these far-reaching global systems also possess the ability to alert and respond at greater speeds than ever before. The authors also analyze specific characteristics of resilient systems-the qualities they possess and how they become resilient-to determine if there are ways to build a system of resilience from the ground up. As such, Designing Resilience will inform a broad range of students and scholars in areas of public administration, public policy, and the social sciences.
