EMERGENCY RESPONSE NaphCare will continue to work side by side with all SAJ personnel to ensure the health, safety, and welfare of inmates, staff, and visitors are not jeopardized within the confines of the correctional institution during an emergency, and we will provide 24-hour emergency healthcare services (NCCHCJ- A-07, J -E-06). We take the following steps to ensure that NaphCare healthcare staff members are prepared to implement the health aspects of the SAJ's emergency response plan. Emergency Response Plan 1. Health aspects of the SAJ emergency plan will be approved by the responsible health authority and facility administrator, and will include: • Responsibilities of health care; • Procedures for triage; • Predetermination of the site for care; • Telephone numbers and procedures for calling health staff and the community emergency response system (e.g. hospitals, ambulances); • Procedures for evacuating patients, and • Alternate backups for each of the plan's elements. 2. At least one mass disaster drill is conducted annually in the SAJ so that over a three-year period each shift has participated. 3. A man -down drill is practiced annually per shift where health staff are regularly assigned. All training for these drills of our staff is documented on the Education Log. 4. All man -down drills will be documented using NaphCare's Medical Emergency Code Report. S. Critiques of each emergency response, drill, and tabletop exercise are conducted, reviewed, and documented on the Emergency Response Critique Form and shared with all healthcare staff. 6. Full-time healthcare staff not assigned to a particular shift are exempt from drills.
