Emergency Preparedness Plan and Checklist for
Small Group Homes
Part One: Emergency Preparedness Plan
Key Concepts
1. Every disaster is local. Our residents depend upon us for their health and safety. What matters to
them is not the federal and state response to an incident, but rather our response.
2. Our Emergency Preparedness Plan addresses two essential components:
a. Capacity — our home and staff have plans, supplies and equipment that show we are prepared
to respond.
b. Capability — our staff and residents have been trained on how to respond and we have
tested our response through periodic exercises.

There is one person at this home, who is responsible for completing and up-dating this
Emergency Preparedness Plan. The name and title of this person is:

Part Two: Planning for All Hazards
Key Concepts
1. No home or organization can plan for all of the potential bad things that can happen.
2. A Hazards Vulnerability Analysis (HVA) identifies what type of incident is most likely to occur in
our area at our facility.
3. For small group homes, HFS 83 mandates emergency preparedness plans for the following:
a. the orderly evacuation during a fire
b. response to serious
川ness or accidents
c. preparation for and response to severe weather including tornado and flooding
d. a route to dry land when the facility is located in a flood plain
e. the location of an emergency shelter for the residents
f. a means of transporting residents to the emergency shelter
