slide6. TABLETOP EXERCISE Slide #6 The most basic emergency management test is a tabletop exercise. Typically, this exercise happens in an informal setting. The intent is to discuss various issues regarding a hypothetical, simulated emergency. Tabletop exercises enhance general awareness, validate plans and procedures, and rehearse potential situations. Additionally, they assess the systems your school needs to prevent, mitigate, respond and recover during a defined incident. Tabletop exercises facilitate conceptual understanding, identify strengths and areas for improvement, and/or achieve changes in attitudes.<br>

slide10. Scenario: Long Term Power Outage It is a Monday morning at 10:45 AM on a 24 degree late fall day at an Ohio School. The weather is forecasted to remain overcast with light snow. Winds are N/NE 16-18 mph. Slide #10<br>
slide11. Scenario Continues Slide #11 Your school has just suffered a power loss. Your P.A. system, phone system, heating system and computer network are down.
What steps do you take?
Who do you notify and how?<br>
slide12. After Action Report Slide #12 A review of your response to the incident should be completed as a part of the process. This is called an "after-action report". Answer the questions below. ➢ Is your response adequate for the scope of the incident? ➢Does the response fall within your current policy and procedure? ▪ If the answer is “no” should the policy/procedure be updated? ▪ If a change is needed, who will facilitate the change? ▪ What is the timeline to update the policy/procedure?<br>
slide13. Questions to Consider Slide #13 ➢Is your response reasonable? Is it realistic; can it be carried out operationally? ➢Are all those involved in the response aware of their roles? Are they trained and available? ➢Do you have a current Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) or do you need to update it? (Law Enforcement, EMS, Mental Health, Grief Counselors, etc.) ➢Was communication adequate during the response? ➢Were the appropriate people notified?<br>
slide14. Questions to Consider Continue Slide #14 ➢ Are there Public Relations concerns in the scenario? ▪ Are they adequately addressed in your response? ➢ Can an operational change be made to mitigate or prevent a future occurrence of this type of incident? Be aware that your answers to these questions will drive the improvement process for your Emergency Operations Plans.<br>
slide15. What Did You Discover? Slide #15 What did you discover during your After-Action Review? ➢ Does any part of your emergency plan need to be updated based on what you’ve learned? ➢ Do any systems, equipment or practices need to be updated? ➢ Is additional training warranted to facilitate the proper execution of this response? ➢ Are additional resources needed to complete the response successfully? If any of the answers to the above questions are, "yes", identify who will be responsible and what is the timeline to make the changes identified.<br>
slide16. Thank You! Slide #16 Please remember that schools must complete a functional, full-scale, and tabletop exercise during the three-year period between resubmission of an annual emergency operation plan, and each type of test can only be used once.
Sample tabletop exercise tool kits are available on the Ohio School Safety Center Website. Please engage your school safety team when planning your test.
After completion, don't forget to document the test and after-action report in OH|ID. Step-by-step instructions for submitting your after-action report can be found here.<br>
